i'd take that class

Upon viewing the linked clip, via Sepoy here: Maybe it's just the combination of sleep deprivation/insomnia, and too much time spent reading books with titles like Race and the Education of Desire: Foucault's History of Sexuality and the Colonial Order of Things, but "Sexuality and Cricket" strikes me as an entirely plausible title for a graduate-level postcolonial studies seminar, don't you think? I'd call dibs on a reading-response presentation for Netherland. Just for the title-related puns alone, though I should add (for Szerelem's sake) that I've seen Joseph O'Neill in person, and he is indeed "rather hot."

(dear readers, in case it is not obvious, I am buried deep beneath the flotsam of grad school at present. But I'll be done with all my class presentations for this semester--and my Hindi midterm--by the end of the week, so there's hope of resurfacing then.)

It is 1:58 am, but I should really do my oblique pronouns worksheet or finish this essay on Talal Asad's proposal for an anthropology of secularism before going to sleep. Or, I could write some more seminar questions about the historiography of the Armenian genocide. Sweet dreams, right.
