Yet another paper topic

First of all, I'm feeling quite blasse at the moment, so I apologize for any untoward or unfunny sentences I might force on you. It's been one of those days.

Second of all, I'm so sorry I didn't make it to Applebees. My favorite teacher in the English department is being let go for no good reason and I was co-leading a protest group all day at Morgan. To be self indulgent for just a second, I'm feeling rather tired, depressed and antisocial. Also, I would have gotten there quite late. I'm an awful student and friend and I beg your forgiveness.

Thirdly of all, since paper topics seem to be on the menu (a weak pun, I know, but I'm recovering), I figure I'll dish mine out. Like Susan, I'm very interested in the parallels between The Devil's Backbone and Pan's Labyrinth. I found a Del Toro statement about the two movies, and I plan to use it as a jumping off point for a paper. I hope it will be interesting having two people writing about the same material, but if this isn't kosher please let me know so I can come up with something else to jabber about.
