Yawn. That said, I think I'm ready to go back to bed now. Seriously. And then I'll wake up in June when this is all over. When the thesis is done, I've graduated, and all that good stuff. The thesis is, apparently "coming along nicely." So I guess that's good. What I'd really like to do with it at this point is burn all my books/notes/drafts and permanently remove all evidence from my hard drive. I'm told that feeling means that it's almost done. I hope so: I have all of my own ideas laid out. All I have left to do is insert a discussion of Aeschylus' and Sophocles' treatments of women (for comparison's sake), find some anthropological/sociological theories on the genesis of polytheistic religions,and insert among my ideas appropriate references to the play, and incorporate what knowledge we have of the original treatment of the myth. Which is actually less work than it sounds like. And then I'll be done. Whew.
Then I can graduate, go to Minnesota, start my REAL education (undergrad is just a warm-up for the main event), buy a puppy, raise cute babies and eventually get a REAL job. A job that allows me to use my mountain of ammassed knowledge and doesn't require a name tag. That would be sweet.
