67

A countdown probably isn't the most mature way to look at this semester. However, it gives me perspective.

I am convinced that the "devil" or whatever you call it does not want me to succeed. I have felt him trying his very best to derail me again. But it isn't going to work this time. I just want the Evil One to know that.

In May, in 67 days, I plan on excessive sleeping and watching brain rotting television to the point that I am not recognizable as a person and taking a serious break from reading anything.

What I am reading this week...
  • Of Love and Other Demons- Gabriel Garcia Marquez
  • The Heroic Couplet, Essay on Criticism, Windsor Forest, Eloisa to Abelard- Pope
  • Gulliver's Travels (I haven't finished this one...)
  • The Gentleman's Magazine
  • V****a Monologues-Eve Ensler-- already read this. It is more than you think it will be. It was very very good.

Hang in there, Anna Lee, the victory is yours.
I really enjoy Garcia-Marquez but must confess that I found Gulliver's Travels was just tedious beyond belief.
Steal a bit of happiness by reading outside in the sunshine whenever you can. Blessings, KCP
