Speaking of Chomsky, I had a presentation in Semantics today. It was Chomsky's 1957 "Syntactic Structures". I hate presentations. They make me want to quit Linguistics and live in an isolated cabin far away from people who can see me... with their eyes. I felt really awkward, because I was basically teaching the class. There were a lot of pauses and me saying, "Um, so do I make any sense?" I said some things that the prof liked, but when he said them back to me, I think he was actually reading into my presentation what he wanted me to say. Ho hum.

Online shopping is so much fun. I hope those boots work out. I had to do, well, I had to talk about a reading in class today. It was "informal" but I think I was rambly and talking way too much surface stuff, I don't know, there was a lot of discussion afterwards so at least that was good.
Welcome to the wonderful world of online shopping. It can be a strange and magical place, but I'll be here to guide you should you get lost (I just realized I've been shopping online for 8 years, now).
First, click here and answer the questions. Then, go here, here, and here. Trust me, experience/practice makes all the difference.
