Back from conducting a marathon STD meeting (I love being president sometimes-- these things go fast when I'm in charge). We're gearing up for the annual Read-A-Thon (every year, we read for 12 hours straight on the front steps of the library; it's a fundraiser for Literacy). Right now, people are signed up to read The Eyre Affair, Their Eyes Were Watching God (that's Tim-- I had no idea he liked Hurston-- he said he's going to translate from Klingon to English), To Kill A Mockingbird, and an unspecified Dr. Seuss. The Seuss won't top David's confrontational reading of Green Eggs and Ham from last year. There are a bunch of undecideds, as well. I myself am thinking either Gravity's Rainbow or The Myth of Sisyphus, but that's subject to change. Get your butts out there and support us! We need audiences!

The other news: I did manage to get my proposal for the poetry reading in, just in time (two hours before the deadline, in true Elvisette style). We're looking at May 8th at 7:00, assuming it gets approved. Quick, painless credit!

Now, if I could just do my homework. I have to go to the liberry and photocopy a bunch of stuff tonight, then turn in some forms between 7-10 (why does everything have to be so complicated?). And, yes, homework . . . at some point. I can always go AWOL from French tomorrow, if need be.
