Busy Like A Very Busy Person
Jan. 22nd, 2010 11:23 pmWeekend To-Do List:
1. Readings: The Wedding of Sir Gawain and Dame Ragnell, Floris and Blanchefleur, first three chapters of Brave New World, assigned chapters of Mothers and Others if I get it in the post.
2. Revise one of my in-class poetry exercises for Monday. The place-poem has a couple of metaphors I really love (any chance to use the word vivisection is a good thing!), but the woodcutter poem is probably closer to being something I wouldn't be embarrassed to turn in. I also need to figure out what I'm going to do with the Batman poem I have in my notebook.
3. Work on the Science Fiction paper I have due Tuesday. Or, you know, at least pick something to write about. None of the prompts really sparked my interest, but I didn't read through that closely, so maybe I'll think of something good to write later. I just need to pick one of the prompts that isn't about The Invention of Morel. Since I...haven't read that.
4. Dye my hair. My roots are showing! People will know I'm not a natural purple!
5. Start plotting out my Help_Haiti story. I have thinky thoughts about how this is going to work, if I can pull it off. But I'm pretty sure it will be TOSmovie!era Sulu/Chekov getting-back-together fic - so more or less a sequel to the Wrath of Khan fic I wrote over the summer, with lots of ex-boyfriends awkwardness and not-quite-dating awkwardness and messy emotions all over the place. But first I need to watch the third and fourth movies. For, um, research purposes. Yeah.
