All

These days I'm starting to really believe that you can have it all.

You, selfish, self-centered person! Don't take it all, share! LOL

You can - you just can't carry it on with you! ;-)

Things are quiet here - which is good considering how stinkin' hot it's been here (Maryland) the past few weeks. I'm just staying inside and trying not to move around too much.

The good news is that I'm getting nice, ripe tomatoes, including some that I think are similar to the ones we had in Bulgaria last year.

My musician friends in Sofia are coming back to the US this month - one tomorrow (Tuesday), one in two weeks. That's going to be an adventure, I'm sure!

I'm fine, thanx for asking! Just followed your example and moved back to Bulgaria, still trying to settle in, struggling with administration issues, meeting friends almost all the time, searching for a job, etc. My agenda is quite busy but I'll try to organize a blog-meeting soon :) Would be nice to meet in person. More info - here.

Arnie: it's so good to hear from you. I'm very excited that your Bulgarian friends are coming to visit. The fact that they're musicians makes everything that more exciting.

Vanina: Congratulations on your decision! Trust your guts! You must know you made a very good choice even if at times you feel not-so-hot being here. Stay in touch!

The literary critic in me can't help but notice that the first word of your post is "all" and the last word of your post is "all,” so your blog has a poetically elegant symmetry. The two all’s function like bookends or parentheses to your glorious affirmation that “you can have it.”

However, do these two all’s have the same meaning? If they do have the same meaning, then the “all” at the beginning is also the “all” that you now believe you can have. In a Lacanian sense, it is a figuration of the lack as identical with the interlocutor (us/all) of the analysand (you). This is what Freud called “transference.”

In other words, to put it more clearly, if all that you want is “it all” (and not another baby), then we are what you want, because we, as your reader, are the mirror image of you.

Can you really have us? Hmmm... oh contrare, and maybe we should feel safe that you can’t actually have us, because the first “all” is a direct address referring to “us” and the second “all” is an adjective qualifying the “it you can have.”

So, as an argument to the contrary, I refer to Yvonne Elliman, who sang (on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack), "If I can't have you, I don't want nobody baby."

naaah, the literary critic in me thinks that she is finally been getting some....and maybe all. au contraire, she should beware not to jinx it with her irrational exuberance.

That childish exclamation, that unbridled ecstasy gushing from the screen lacks the Barthesian restraint it requires. Readers must separate a literary work from its creator in order to liberate it from interpretive tyranny.
