What a better way to start a new 'age-year' then with a Nick Cave interview?
So, I'm slightly older. Woo hoo. I'm also one huge step closer to graduating as all I've left to do is bureaucratic crap - science and computer requirements which will take two hours or so. This means ... I've finished my final work ... which is .... good. Weights lifted and whatnot. I've undercut Marxism while showing how selections from the 'corpus' are still useful. I've pointed flirtatiously at anarchism through poststructuralism and my advisor, Todd May's, work. It's been harder than it needed be, but I go to a shit school and needed to show graduate schools a large and sophisticated body of theory, and this is the capstone on that. So now I've a year or so to just write and read fun things to build up my resume so I can go to school again (but this time, a real school). And I'm thinking about geography departments.
Also, I'm not going to go to work today. I'm drunk and tired and vaguley sad, and Theis is moving in this evening and it'd be rude to not be here, and I'm going to help Ilana with her Kierkegaard thesis and generally just don't care.
So ... what am I doing? I'm listening to the entire "Thriller" album on repeat and drinking.
