Danger: High Voltage

Someone drove into a utility pole on River Road and cut off power to the entire university. Thanks dude! This happened just as people were finishing their exams for the morning so it was an atmosphere of controlled chaos as at least 40 law students freaked out in front of the Dean's office. Poor Professor Murphy got stuck in the elevator for a couple of minutes, but they pried him out before too long. Hopefully he's not claustrophobic- he is a lovely man.

In these times of strain, I'd like to take a moment to say thank you to Ukrops for having a pleasant cafe area with wireless internet where I can sit and finish my paper. I also am listening to the prattlings of a 4 yr old who is just cute as a button (funny little gap teeth and ears like a car driving down the road with its doors open) and says things like "Because it's snowing I can almost see the mountains!" and "We need to get ingredients for cookie dough because Santa likes cookies!" This simultaneously makes me think "I am old enough, both physically and socially, to have a child that age," "You won't be winning logic tests anytime soon, my love," and "O to be 4 again when you didn't know how much snow rocked because it got you out of school but you also didn't know how much snow sucked because it makes you get out of school."

Editing my paper again was not the best idea. I need to just turn it in!!!
