paper writing saga part 4

Well folks it turns out it was totally okay--we just did 'peer reviews' in class, and the girl I exchange papers with had even less done than I did, so I'm interpreting that to mean that I am doing just fine.  I talked to Christy on the way home from school and she gave me brilliant ideas, which might in fact end in this paper actually having a thesis that is worth a crap!  Wow, says I.  Now I have to go read King Lear so that I can make brilliant connections betwixt the two plays and hopefully carry the day.  

Ooo, Ian McKellen makes a very jolly Lear, no?
