stunt_muppet: (I have the dumb)
Comment replies (and gushy, emotive thanks to [livejournal.com profile] livii) coming up when I'm not supposed to be working, but right now we've hit stupid o'clock again, and I have to witter on LJ or I won't be able to focus on my essay that's due in 7 hours.

I was so determined not to let this happen this year, guys. And then it did. Senior year is going to eat me alive and spit out my masticated bones.

Also, I am writing about a John Donne sonnet, and I have typed "Donna" instead of "Donne" at least five times.

And I kind of feel bad for reading gender issues and male anxieties into 17th-century poetry, since I do the exact same thing with 20th-century TV, but as far as I'm concerned Donne brings this on himself. If I wasn't supposed to read male sexual paranoia into Holy Sonnet 14, maybe he shouldn't have analogized the reception of divine grace and slavery/rape. No kidding.

Still a lovely poem, though.

Urgh. Monday is going to consist of one long nap, except that I have lab and pilates that day. Scratch that, Monday's going to consist of one long, delirious caffeine bender.
