An Occasional (as opposed to a Periodical) font of infalliable wisdom concerning, well, mostly boardgames, books, and life as a navel-gazing pseudointellecutal thirty-year-old hip-deep in grad school.

Haven't Done THAT in a While

The occasional all-nighter, I've decided, is good for the soul, even if you're in search of a half-decent second draft of a thesis instead of the infinite. I hadn't pulled one in...gosh, years. I stayed in the graduate office in the department; the offices have a different rhythm at night. One of the professors is a night owl himself; even he gave up at three, though. Two hours later, the first morning person came in. In the meantime: Me, and the cleaning crew.

For whatever reason, I had trouble sitting down and starting the editing process. Once I did, though, it went reasonably smoothly. One of those lessons I need to take to heart, I guess.

In other news: North Carolina took me. Any Chapel Hillians out there?
