Done with school.


And the xanga (more or less sporadically), for that matter.

Since we're all posting our summer reading lists (and by "all" I mean Brandon), here's mine for the summer.

Dante: The Divine Comedy
Augustine: Confessions
Boethius: The Consolation of Philosophy
Jonathan Safran Foer: Everything is Illuminated
and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
Thomas aKempis: The Imitation of Christ
C. S. Lewis: Mere Christianity (because I have never read it)
Pascal: Pensees (if Brandon actually gets to it and wants to email-discussion it)

Books I would like to get to but won't try too hard to finish:
Flannery O'Connor's Short Stories
Upton Sinclair: The Jungle
Tolstoy: Anna Karenina

That's ambitious enough for me. I'm just hoping to get through Dante, Augustine, and Foer. To finish the rest would be awesome.

I also want to type up all my notes from History classes, hopefully relearning a lot of it.

Now, back to writing the Jenkins paper that's due by 8 a.m. but will be late...

WOOHOO!

**Thesis: Full Rough Draft 1**
Pages: 46
Paragraphs: 132
Sentences: 900
Words: 15407
Characters: 78764

I didn't quite pull a Brandon (doubling the requirement), but I'm only 3.5 full pages away.

Twenty-four-and-a-half hours until the full rough draft of Thesis is due. That's at least another fifteen pages to add to my twenty-eight. I will not post again until I get this thing done, even if this thing kills me.

That is all.
