A would-be medievalist holds forth on academia, teaching, gender politics, blogging, pop culture, critters, and whatever else comes her way.

Yes, this really is yet another blog by a disillusioned grad student. I sympathize, but that's just the way it has to be. For hints as to what my bizarre alias means, click here and here and, if needed, here and here. To get a sense of what I'm up to, feel free to check out the sections called "Toward a Wiseass Creed" and "Showings: Some Introductory Wiseassery" in my main blog's left-hand sidebar. Please be aware that spamming, harassing, or otherwise obnoxious comments will be deleted and traced.

Overheard at the Clinique counter

Clinique gal: Hey Stacey! How ya doin? How's school?
Stacey: It SUCKS!
Clinique gal: Really? Why? I thought you were doing what you love!
Stacey: Apparently, grad school is all, like, hard and stuff. Nobody told me.
