Rainy Monday

What is the Karen Carpenter song? "Rainy days and Mondays always get me down..."

Well, it's Monday, AND it's rainy. And cold. And windy.

I would complain, but I know that all too soon it will be so hot that I wish I could take my skin off.

A few notable things today:

- Went to my property professor's office hours and discussed law and philosophy with him. Professor S is a short and nerdy little man, in his 40s (?), though today up close he seemed much older. He is very much beloved by the students, because he is self-deprecating and funny, in a very dead-pan, dry sort of way. I have been meaning to talk to him for a while, though it's been hard to gather my thoughts and to have something substantive to talk about.

Prof S's wife is a philosophy professor at my Alma Mater, and he himself has a linguistics PhD. I asked him whether linguistics has helped him at all in his legal scholarship. He said that recently, it has, since both linguistics and law deals with the common problem of information costs.

He didn't elaborate that much since we were running out of time, but I have been thinking about that ever since.

I'm trying hard to come up with some kind of topic to write on next year. It's very hard to come up with something original, interesting, and narrow enough to be realistic.

- Boyfriend, bless his heart, cleaned the apartment today and moved furniture around, so our apartment is nicer. We have also been gradually buying more furniture, so our place is not so messy because of a lack of spaces to put our stuff. Already we are seeing much improvements.

- Because it's been rainy for the past few days, my allergy has been better. My allergy medication, however, don't seem to be that effective.

Okay, back to reading tax now.

:D coming home to a sparkling clean apartment.
:( ate too many pieces of free pizza in the afternoon. Now I feel all stuffed and grossed out.
