She’s giving me lots of pointers for my next project, and her talk tomorrow sounds great. Only problem is I’m still working on the Hoggart paper, which is kinda overdue. Today I realised that I’d written whole pages of text ‘for the published version’ that I had completely forgotten about/abandoned because of the craziness attending my departure. I get seriously worried when that happens: when I realise I’ve already written something I’m trying to write. Just one step closer to my Alzheimer’s paranoia coming true. It’s kind of good in that I don’t have to write something new, but also makes it hard to determine whether I should go with what I said, or what I would have said if there had been more time (and a cultural studies audience) and I hadn’t written a 20 minute presentation. Oh dear. The perils of genre. And I’m just so sleepy since I got back from the UK. I can’t tell if it is existential or physical. But something I haven’t mentioned is that my life has been hit by another big change, which will mean I am living alone again, so maybe it’s some psychosomatic thing. Yep. When in doubt, Freud.

I spoke too soon (see comment on Lisa McLaughlin below). Thanks! Yeah Yeah. Um, Yeahs. Something like a phenomena, and all that. Hmmm… I spoke too soon (see comment on Lisa McLaughlin below). Thanks!
