I'm Still Here

Just so you know, I have not totally abandoned the blog. I have just been super busy with papers, presentations, exams, trips to the Big Apple, and hanging with Jane Fonda. Oh yeah, you read that right. Jane Freakin' Fonda.

While in NYC, Shlomo and I saw the brilliant play that she is brilliant in 33 Variations. We also saw Guys and Dolls, 9 to 5: The Musical, Blithe Spirit, Exit the King, and Rooms: A Rock Romance. We were only there four days, so it was a lot of theatre. I like a lot of theatre. But, it has cramped my style as far as doing anything else. I did no work while we were there (It is typically frowned upon to pull out a pc in the middle of the Nederlander Theatre). But I have paid the price this week. I thought I had done a lot of pre-work for this week, but evidently not enough.

So anyway, I guess I am off to explore Anti-Semitism in The Merchant of Venice. Yep, it's definitely there. I just have to figure out what to say about it for ten pages or so.
