Anyway, a quick break from work. Finished all ten articles and feeling very thrilled that my blogging experience has become pivotal in the direction of my thesis. Reading many fascinating articles on the deep knowledge one gains in the blogsphere: social literacy, digital literacy, critical literacy not to mention, visual and verbal. Words like digitextual, hypertextual are all starting to mean something to me.
Peter finally got home Saturday morning. We were both so pooped from the past week. We so wanted to stay in bed all day and never get up! Alas, we did finally manage to extricate ourselves from under the douvet and face the world by noon.
Peter has taken the girls out for lunch–KFC–he’s been aching to take them there all year. I always put the kibosh on it as I think it is junk! However, let them have fun and eat their cake once in awhile. So, they are off for KFC and then to Peter’s office to play while Peter cleans up, apparently.
I am relieved I read all the articles and more importantly am fascinated with one particular article on academic blogging as a new literacy.
Found two holes in our wall downstairs where those nasty mice gnawed their way into the furnace room and play room. I hope it is all in the past as we only caught one mouse and so far no new poop. The question is: can mice gnaw through gyp-rock(SP?)? Does anyone out there know the answer? Please say they can–I so don’t want our uninvited guests to be rats!
