here we go, here we go

another day of editing loopy's thesis! wahoo! it is almost done and i think it's looking great. i'm so proud of loopy for reading every single word Bourdieu** ever published, at least twice, and then coming up with a brilliant new application of his theory! i hope loopy's colleagues appreciate how smart she is. which is very very.

the best part is the theory is all about fields,* so i get to draw lots of silly cartoons of people doing things in fields, like having emotion acts. these are supposed to cheer loopy up and sometimes she laughs but other times she just moans quietly. today i brought lots of snacks because yesterday i was only supposed to stay for a couple minutes and i stayed for twelve hours and everybody got pretty hungry. and cranky.

uh oh, loopy's opening the document for some more hot front-stage action, so i guess i better go. almost there! almost there! yeehaw!



*here is a pdf of an interview of Loic Wacquant called "Taking Bourdieu Into the Field." It begins with a joke I do not understand. The interviewer asks, "If you will forgive this joke, how did the 'ontological complicity' between the 'history embodied' in you and the 'history objectivized' in his writings take place concretely?" Ha ha ha that's so funny! What??? Wacquant says he likes the joke though, in the next sentence. So that's probably what's important.
