Daily Journal Entry #11667 12/09/07 Sun

• I worked on my methods discussion, caught up on some other methods homework, read Genevieve's proposal, then perused some sample proposals before going to get some fabulous noodles on Green and some cocoa at Walgreens.

• Time passed, and I studied kanji.

• Did some studying for Japanese then bought some cookies at Sharon's pagan bake sale on the way to my test, which went well (forgot some honorific forms).
• We had an optional four fields discussion with some of the folks from prosem. I personally benefitted from considering the importance of professionalization as a reason for a four fields education.

• Time passed, and then I worked on methods.

• Spent a lot of time finishing up my proposal, then made some edits to my interview before uploading.
• Decided to take a break, got sucked into the computer, then picked up terrible barbecue on the way to Sharon's to watch Pride & Prejudice with Keira Knightley. I didn't much care for the traditional romantic element, but Sharon and I both cried when the father was happy that his daughter was happy.

• Went home and found that the day had passed too quickly.

• Woke and wrote my paper for contemporary ethnography (I got excited about multi-sited ethnographies). I ordered Jimmy Johns so I could keep working and not go out.
• I updated my Amazon wish list, but it was hard figuring out what to put on it. I don't want physical objects anymore if I can help it, so I don't really want books, though reference books would be fine. I've settled on DVDs for my canon. Everything else I want is too expensive, like an Edirol R-09.

• I couldn't decide whether to sleep or to stay up and work through the night, and I ended up just laying down for a few hours.

• I got up from laying down around 5 a.m. and started writing. I wrote until noon, when I went to campus to turn in my paper. I went to the library and got some books and DVDs.
• I caught up on my feeds, and then had dinner with Cass at Chipotle. Cass thinks "2 girls" is fake.
• Stopped by the Art Coop and had a brief discussion about "2 girls" with Maria. She thinks it's real. I also showed her the difference between 05, 07, and 10 G2 pens.

• Drank some chocolate milk and watched some Natural Born Killers before sleep.

• Woke late at noon thirty.
• Read feeds for a long time.
• Picked up tamales from Aide at four.
• Read Boellstorf's The Gay Archipelago.
• Went to Murphy's with Ricky, Sarah, John, and Ricky. Ashley showed up later.

• Went to Steak and Shake with the same. Ricky poured ketchup on me, but he made up for it by paying for my shake and a pitcher from earlier.

• Woke late and read Boellstorf's The Gay Archipelago while online, took a nap, read some more, then went to Ricky's. Bharath and I resolved our differences over Matthew Barney. He had seen a film, whereas I had just seen the images, which allowed us to understand why he would have a negative reaction, and I would have a positive one. Then I discovered that Bharath had not seen "2 girls" and promptly arranged a screening, with a long preview of Portal. Bharath cursed me, and asked Chris why he had not issued him a warning.

• The snow was ridiculous.
