Thanks to Rachel for the help in attaching links to my site. I know nothing about HTML but obviously have to learn very quickly. The Texas Hold 'Em game was OK. I just watched them go for 3 hours on one single game and when I left there were two people still in it! Now I have to try and finish (OK, start) at least one of the papers due next week.

Just got Colin Wilson's Summing up and Verdict about Jack the Ripper. Only about 80 more to go to complete my collection.

Am reading Great Expectations as one of the books for my comprehensive exams next semester. It's been years since I read it, so it's fun to get back into Dickens. I read Hard Times last week. Next week may be a George Eliot or another Dickens, not sure. These exams, in Victorian, Romaticism and 19th Century American Lit. are probably going to be the hardest things I've ever done. I dread them. I'm going to have to develop a syllabus almost to keep track of what I'm reading and notes on each work. Plus, how do I parcel out time for each period? I'll have to ask someone who's recently taken them.

This is in addition to the German exam I have to take in August, by the way. Ah, me.
