Survive or Revise
Yesterday I actually said, "Oh noes! I is caught in new rhetorical situation!" Your undergraduate years turn your brain into academic LOL sludge like that. And then, you build a sand castle or something. It's all talk. I'm shifting my eyes dodgily. Dodgily. That's right. I adverbed it. AND moved the adverb away from the verb. I'm living on the edge.
Psst! Those fish, those fish over there. I think they're eating TetraFin. I read that it has the Omega-3 fatty acides needed to foster fish growth and energy! Immune boosting! You probably wish you were a fish.
When I forget Tobey Maguire's name, I refer to him as Spiderman Who Performs Abortions.
When I learn to knit, I can make hats. Hats for everyone. Somehow, despite my excitement over the idea of being surrounded by hats of all colors and head sizes, I have made somewhere between little and no effort to actually learn to knit. So if you've written down on next week's calendar, "Hideous afghan knitted by Marjorie arriving by post," I'd suggest pushing that back until at least January 2011.
I was typing my outro for an OWL just now which goes something like "Because the Online Writing Lab is limited by time and space, I’m unable to go over everything that might be of use to you when choosing how to revise." But instead of "revise," I typed "survive." Choosing how to survive is very important as well. Hopefully she knows this already without added help from the Writing Center.
I haven't blogged in a month, and I still have nothing to say.
