Ready for a (spring) break

Hey All! It's week 9 of 14 of the spring semester, and I am ready for spring break. Good thing it's next week. I'm afraid I don't have any big travel plans for the break. Instead, I'm going to start preparing for final exams. Exciting, right?

The weather today in Iowa City was fantastic. Don't believe me? I have proof!

On Sunday we got a substantial amount of snow, and today I could have laid outside and worked on my tan. I don't know what exactly is going on with the weather, but I'm not going to complain about days like today.

I realized that I haven't posted any pictures of the law school on the blog, and considering I spend so much time there, I figured you might like to see what it looks like.

A view from a bridge over the Iowa River.

The path from the parking lot to the law building.

I'll take a few more pictures at some point. Maybe I can even sneak a picture during one of my lectures. You can see learning from my point of view, which is basically a bunch of students stalking each other on Facebook instead of paying attention to the Professor.

I have a big paper due on Friday which, for the purposes of our assignment, is a document destined for the US Supreme Court. Let me tell you right now, if you have a case you want to argue before the Supreme Court I am not the man for the job. My paper seems to be more akin to science fiction/fantasy than legal argument. Luckily, I'll be done thinking about it after Friday.

My better half is in rehearsals for the Magic Flute right now. This is the fourth season in a row that she's performing the role. In other news, Saturday marks our 5th wedding anniversary! Unfortunately we won't be together that day but Brenda is flying back to the US the following week. We'll definitely do something to celebrate then.

Well, it's past my bedtime so I had better call it a night. I hope you all have a great week, and I'll talk to you next Tuesday!
