Another one bites the dust

Well, there's another one down. Some time to night, after I sift through for stupid mistakes, I will be sending my committee, chapter five, the last chapter before my conclusion.

In followup to my last blog, I broke out of my funk on a beautiful Saturday morning. I got my pen out, and I started hacking away. The chapter reads much better now. The mantra works, esp. the part about transition sentences and digressions.

I would really like to catch Sarah McLachlan, who is coming to town in August. Tickets went on sale last week (I have no idea if they are sold out). I'm a total sucker for Lilith Fair-type performers. Fumbling Toward Ecstasy is one of my all-time favorite albums.

Wait...what did I just say about digressions? :)

YEah, I saw the Sarah concert too... shes playing at the United Center though, which I think may be too big a place to see her. Luke & I saw her at the place where the Pistons play once though, and she was still fantabulous!

I was actually thinking about buying tickets for Valentine's day--a post-first draft valentine's gift for the two of us.

By the way, for those who are interested, Sarah McLachlan is pretty close to sold out. There are nose-bleed seats left, but that is about it.
