Did you explain about the turned-in-edness of it?
I did. At the very end. I clarified, and she said she knew that. She actually apologized for not catching the errors when we went over it Easter weekend. She does understand that. She just doesn't want it used for other things with the same errors.
Interesting thing that you may only understand after reading the transcript (and possibly part of my analysis). She alluded to "Eve and Adam" at one point. I found this really interesting and used it as one of my examples to show her showing equality, since she listed Eve first. Last night, she completely took Eve out. I find that very, very interesting. And, I suspect she's not going to be real thrilled with the analysis I did on that point.
I say again: oy.
That was pretty much my reaction.
She just doesn't want it used for other things with the same errors.
I guess that makes sense. You could, if only you were still writing it, make a point about the conflict between the eternal in-processness of oral tradition versus the finite stopping point of publication... except that you've already hit that finite stopping point!
I am in excruciating back pain this morning. It started yesterday. I think it's because I was hauling around the new laptop and a bunch of books, both in over-the-shoulder bags.
I threw my hip slightly out of socket doiing that. Cute new laptop bag . . OF DEATH
Oh noes, Sean! Be really gentle with yourself. Back pain, it sucks.
I literally have a robin sitting outside my window right now singing at me. He's maybe 15 feet from my head.
Is he bob bob bobbing along?
Or perhaps robbing the rich to give to the poor?
Or just fighting crime alongside the Dark Knight.
Or trying to avenge his slayer mother (whilst posing as the principal of a newly-opened High School)?
