I received an e-mail from Dr. B this morning, full of good news. First, he's sent his Letter of Appraisal, and it should be here on time. Second, my alma mater is hosting a conference on Berlin Culture in the fall of 2006, and he's encouraging me to put together a paper. Third, not only is [an important scholar in my field] going to be at the conference, but his article about Irmgard Keun is in the most recent edition of German Studies Review.
Now, there are a few more facts to work into my Program of Study (conferences I plan to propose to present at, and possibly another entry for my bibligraphy).
I already feel so shy about meeting [important scholar]. Everything of his that I've read has been awesome, and I'm scared I'm going to act like a fan.

Dude, this is unrelated, but I wanted to let you know that I've finally started downloading your most triumphant songlist.
Now, on a related note: I know what you mean. I'm scared of meeting Elizabeth Epperly and Marie Henly Rubio for the same reason.

I was going to post it as a comment on your website, but I figured I'd just blog it myself.
Lynnie, you almost sound like blog spam! You're awesome.
