I have finished my damn Tolkien paper! The sucker is going into the prof's box tomorrow and then its out of my hands. I don't know if the extension can hold out to let me continue on in grad school--we'll see--but at least I did this thing.

I might not have been able to make the final push to get my somewhat isolated butt over the edge of my writer's block if it weren't for the encouragement of people here, especially you and you and you.(-: Thank you so much! <3<3<3

Here's the title: "The Traffic in Hobbits: Feminine Values and Critiques of Traditional Masculinity in The Lord of the Rings." Hey, I could have called it the Transgendered Pregnant Hobbit Paper, but I didn't. (-:

Tomorrow evening after work I celebrate by catching up on sleep definitely, and maybe getting to do some entries for my beloved MESPT. Whoo! Then its back to the grind to churn out the second paper, the one that-I-don't-care-about-at-all-I-just-want-it-done, before I can even hope to be out of the forest. But yay, the paper I cared about is done enough to hand in! Years of graduate school induced terror of writing at an end!(-:

HOORAY! That is such a HUGE HONKIN' FEELING OF RELIEF, isn't it? I'm so glad for you. Now you can actually breathe for a little bit, can't you? But I have to say, that Transgendered Pregnant Hobbit Paper is kinda catchy. I almost wish you'd gone for that. Almost.

Yes indeedy! (-: TY! I can breathe a little bit, but not too much--got to crank out another paper quickly.

Ehehehe! I did manage to work it into the body of the paper as a semi-joke. You can't take this dry theory stuff too seriously, and, as far as I'm concerned, one of the purposes of a long theoretical paper is to be a set-up for some good one liners.(-; Yeah, not likely to get my PhD, am I?(-;
