What ho, all.

Wrote my essay on the emergence of the public sphere in 18th century England (or whatever the hell it was on) today...Short of the word limit (what do you mean footnotes don't count?) and it was just bad all over. I guess that's what I get for leaving it too late and not really giving a shit. Nice attitude, what?

I've got my Phonology assignment and midterm this week which is just going to be hectic. I'm deeply grateful that the exam is open book, lol, but even that's not going to help me if I can't work out the problems with the data sets. You know, this stuff seems easy in tutorials, and I can do it then, too, but outside of that with my own work, it's not so easy. I'm hoping a friend of mine can give me a hand with it tomorrow...Solving the problem in my assignment will help with my exam, so it should all work out well. Provided she doesn't pike out on me, of course.

Nothing much is going on right now, unfortunately...But I guess I can't really complain, lol. Could be worse...I could be having to leave my home and stock up on supplies and hunker down in preparation for one hell of a storm like some of you guys have to. That sucks. Mother nature's a real bitch sometimes, eh?

I hope everything goes well for you guys. I hope your homes and families are safe and sound, and that the storm doesn't do too much damage and that no one gets badly hurt. I can't imagine how scary (and kind of cool) it would be. Good luck!!!!

And, for you all (and others of you who are going through a tough time -- you know who you are xox), here's a picture of Hugh Laurie in his undies. It made me laugh and I hope it makes you laugh too.
