So...
I'm going to take another beating this quarter, mega-workload already being felt (as I realize that not touching my exegetical homework from Thursday to Saturday was not the best of ideas).

But on the plus side, I got my first choice in presentation topics for Theological Method, and have a killer paper topic in the works, one which can very easily become a writing sample, if not a dissertation. The bittersweet sensation of realizing that there is no body of work on the subject at hand...no sources means original research, baby...if I can do it (hence the problem of 'just how well-versed am I when it comes to the patristics, and seeing my struggles with NT greek, how will I do outside of those with which I'm familiar?')
