It's....interesting, to say the least.

As far as the auction, I wish I had some mad bank. *sigh*

I want Katha Pollitt to edit my dissertation!

I think someone told me that she has an MA in my field, too (classics). And my thesis is about gender and agency -- so really I think it was meant to be. Too bad I'm broke.
