Things that RISE FROM THE GRAVE!!!! bwahahahaha

Things rising from their respective moulding, oozing graves:

1.   My halted progress on my thesis, in the form of Foucault's ghost. At the advice of my erstwhile advisor (while my actual advisor is on sabbatical), I'm delving into the French philosopher/writer to help develop a framework with which to look at my data. I'm pretty excited about it, actually . . . because I'm a nerd like that.

2.   My hopes and dreams for a successful profession as an historian, in the form of a 99 %ile GRE score. I won't lie - there's some good, old-fashioned horn-blowing happening here. I'm not saying to look for my first book in your friendly neighborhood Barnes & Noble, but there might be something with my name on it there someday. :)

Updates to come when I have more on Foucault. Happy Halloween!
