an educational break

Things I have learned since waking up this morning:

• There is nothing for curing insomnia like sleeping in your own bed, wrapped in your orange marshmallow (comforter). Doing so may even make you literally (in this case meaning: it happened) wake up with "The Candyman Can" stuck in your head.
• 7 days of break. 7 Narnia books. Coincidence? I think not
  
• If you wake up at 7:30, the coffee in the pot downstairs will still be warm enough.
• When you get downstairs, if you are in a particular(ly awesome) family, your mother will have left you books. 7 books. 7 days of break. Now I have 14 books to read. The task has become a bit daunting, but I have a plan: Narnia with breakfast. Classwork until midafternoon. Other book until bedtime.
• Falling in love with a paper you are writing makes you want to work on other papers all the more. In this case, my ethics paper. If I haven't mentioned it before, it's a methodological take on ethics, in the frame of an extended metaphor of knitting a sock.
