During a dinner I had with Jay Udall, he said, "Writing poetry is dancing with the dwende," a line that has stuck with me since. Beyond just poetry, any creative act is ultimately based in the idea of reaching out and touching the mythical, of embracing the unknown and unknowable. This blog is about the dance.

Thesis Defense
It's official, folks. My thesis is pretty much done. I'll be defending Thursday, November 12. Then it's off to Fort Collins for approval.
Jenny - I'm not required to recruit an audience, though the defense is open to anyone who'd like to come. It starts at 4:00 and it's going to be on-campus. Let me know if you'd like details.
Boudreau - Sadly, I don't think the balloon will be ready by then ;)

Do you get to have an audience? I can try to come and cheer you on.
Awesome!
Will you be traveling by balloon?
(Sorry, couldn't resist.)

Damn, I was hoping it was in the morning. I can't make the afternoon....I'll cheer you on from the store!
Same here: can't make the afternoon (kiddos)... Damn. Had hoped to bring popcorn and cheer you on :-)
But I'll cheer you on in spirit. Would be nice for you to wrap this shindig up before the holidays, no?
Lots of cheering and juju from this direction as well.
Huge sigh with it's all over, right?
WOO Congrats! :) Big week, that one :)
I'm sure all the good juju will help. Thanks guys :)
