Back to School for GrownUps

Yesterday’s post mentioned that I had had a bit of good news.

Minor, in the overall scope of things, really - but for me, it is very positive, anyway.

I talked to the prof of one of my courses about the options for the final assignments - and I do not have to write a big long research paper for it.

I will have to write a paper - but if I prefer, can publish something - anything - on the web - and then write a paper about my use of the Internet and how it compares to publishing something in a book, i.e. what are the advantages gained by using the web.

That is well within my capabilities (computer programmer analyst and taught web development, even) ….

so - I thought what I would do, since he is not particular about WHAT I publish - is to put up a webpage about the musical I am working on for Textual Transmissions …. which should earn some credit over in that course, and also provide the basis for this one.

So now I am down to only 2 major research papers (and a website, a million small ones and trillions of pages of academic readings yet to wade through) all due before December 6.

I know it doesn’t seem like much … but it felt like a load off none-the-less.

There is a glimmer of hope that I might be able to get through everything… just a glimmer (psych paper is stalled again) … but it is there.

Wanna do me a favour? My friend Jax’ dog Maggie is in a Hallowe’en contest over on Gather.com. Views much appreciated! (All you have to do is click)
