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.

Why the hell not us?" -Cotton, on studying for exams

This is the second weekend of the quarter. If I'm not mistaken, this is where the grind starts to set in. I've got the big brief due two weeks from Monday, then oral arguments a week after. But this being my third repetition, there's less stress, if more work. Also, the weather is nicer these days, so I'm getting out more. At least during the day. Don't want to get mugged.
I've got basketball this afternoon. Looking forward to making a lot of passes. Since I can't shoot, jump, or dribble, I've been focusing all my energy on the assist. If somebody says to me, "Good Look!" it makes me proud as hell. The bounce to the cutter for a smooth lay-in, the kick-out for a sweet trey, maybe a far lob to the speedy cherry-picker for an easy basket--these are the specialties of the slow white man. I love it. That and tenacious D. Gives me an excuse to show up.
