Hello. Welcome to my website. It started while I was in Europe for a semester, and I've kept it up since then. I'm now at the University of Chicago Law School, living in Hyde Park, and the story continues. If you want to say hi or visit me, email cfloyd at uchicago dot edu.

So far in my short life I have been moderately successful. That's mostly luck...I am fundamentally a lazy person.
If you are also a camoflaged bum, then you know the feeling that I just got. It's the feeling that might be labeled, "Oh crap, I have a lot to do." The feeling is intensified because of the week prior you've been lying to yourself about how easy it's going to be to pack and leave. "Aw, it's not going to take but a couple hours. Sure, I'll go for a coffee with you." And then you're riding your bike and you realize that in 72 hours you have to get on a plane and you've got a closet full of dirty laundry, a cluttered desk, and towels to give away.
I've also got to sell my Handy, return my books to the library, de-register with the police, get my housing deposit, give my bike back, and God knows what else I'm forgetting.
