The only reason today didn't make me loose all respect for my existentialism professor is because I didn't have any to begin with. Let me state clearly that this is not a personal attack. I like Dr. E very much and think she is a lovely person, a genuinely nice person. I might even say I love her, the way I love my church people back home. Not because they're the smartest or the best-educated, or because I have anything in common with them, but because they are wonderful, sweet people. As is Dr. E. This does not mean, however, that I think she is a good professor or that she understands what she is talking about.

( philosophy blather, or Plato was an essentialist, dammit! )

So much homework... soooo much homework... I really should have been doing some of it instead of bitching about Dr. E.... but I didn't... and now look where it's gotten me.

Nevertheless, I will see "Grace" tonight. I will accomplish what I need to. And then I will go to bed at a reasonable hour.
