notes from underground

I shouldn’t even be online right now… my current project is a 10-page final paper on Banana Yoshimoto’s short[ish] story “Kitchin.” All the same, here I am, messing with blogging software. I’ve been meaning to start a new blog for a while, actually… LJ just doesn’t cut it, and I ran across wordpress at karinko.net (the site of a girl I met at the Gate a while back.) Now it’s up and running, just in time to procrastinate on finals!

I don’t really know how this system works yet, but I’ll explore it this weekend. It seems like it might even have automatically generated rss feeds, which would be happy.

Anyway, much customization to be done, but first, the unlikely connections between Shojo popular literature of the 1990s and traditional tanka verse of the Heian era!! (Hint: it involves nature)

Please, leave comments regarding theme, I’ve got a bunch to choose from and haven’t decided yet.
