I ...Maybe, but I hope I am mysteriously anonymous. I accidentally found out who one blogger is and had to stop reading the blog because it felt too weird.<BR/><BR/>I'm with you on the boring location thing. And they do seem to crank the heat up, maybe for the contingent that complains if it's below 80. I'm not going to MLA this year, thank God, but do wear something light under that suit.undinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05589384016564587214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22001031.post-46774789252114091402007-10-07T22:25:00.000-07:002007-10-07T22:25:00.000-07:00Aha!

I wonder if I know you.<BR/><BR/>Definitely some of those carpet patterns are both ugly and hypnotic; after a while you think you are receiving messages through them.<BR/><BR/>And ditto on the weirdness of conference locations! Like when MLA was in New York but between the conference and developing the flu I never saw the outside. Very sad. If it's an interesting conference I'd almost prefer it be in a boring location so I'm not tempted to play hooky. This year MLA is Chicago, but I will be too nervous to do anything. And someone told me they crank the heat up inside everywhere and you're sweltering in your heavy suit if you're not careful.Sisyphushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09880634753539329199noreply@blogger.com
