The never ending tasks of a scholar

My apologies for the lack of posts, but my life has been pretty hectic since arriving from Rome. Much of that business comes from my grad studies. The endless activities began last week, when I took the first half of a Shakespeare midterm; I took the second half yesterday, in addition to observing a BritLit class. Today a bibliography for my research methods class came due. Tomorrow I'll be teaching a demonstration class on Flannery O'Connor's short story "A Temple of the Holy Ghost," as well turning in a book review, a pedagogical paper, and a report on that classroom observation. Then, on Thursday, I'll lead a class discussion on the tenth chapter of James Joyce's Ulysses. Just felt like I had to vent :-)
