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.

Every once in a while I go study on the main campus, where the undergrads are. It's a wonderful thing and it takes me back to the glory days. There are less furrowed brows and receding hairlines, except for the other grad and professional students who also are nose-in-the-books in the oasis of the young and carefree. But sometimes a little too carefree. I have to strike a balance between being too stressed-out and being too relaxed. If you're wondering why I'm talking about this, it's because my exams are a week from today.
Also, I have completely embarassed myself with my lack of ability to use the broiler on my oven. I'm just used to grills, that's all. Still, it's no excuse for turning a fine NY strip into jerky. If someone can tell me the proper way to broil a 1-1/2 inch piece of beef to melt-in-your-mouth, medium-rare deliciousness, for the love of God post or email me. Until then I'll just sear my cuts on a smoking hot cast iron skillet, which might be the purist's choice anyway.
