alllllllmost done grading student research papers.

Ironically enough, right as I'm in the worst, most grinding part of academic life, KING-fm starts playing Brahms' "Academic Festival Overture." Which is one of my favorite pieces of music ever, and which totally feeds my romantic fantasy of what campus life SHOULD be.

In a way, it makes me sad that I'm still in my office at very nearly 6 pm on a summer's night, but it also kind of gives me the energy to get through the last 2 papers.
