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.

Who is Charlie Floyd? I graduated from the University of Oklahoma in 2002 with a degree in Letters. Then I decided to get a second BA in German and spent the spring finishing my degree requirements at the Karl-Franzens Universitaet in Graz, Austria. Now I'm at the University of Chicago Law School and loving every minute.
This is my story, day by day.

Annoying things happen recently. Yesterday I got pulled over on the Broken Arrow expressway. I had no idea what for, but apparently I was speeding. It wasn't until after the guy left that I realized he had marked the "Pursuit" box instead of "Radar." So apparently the dude just saw me passing somebody and assumed I was going too fast. He gave me a 1-10 mph over the limit citation, for a smooth $120 fine. Way to ruin my week, Tulsa Police Department

So I figure I need a good run at the AA stadium to try to make some of the lost funding up. Tonight is $1 beer and Elvis Impersonator night. It would have been sweet, but no, there was a rain delay and everyone left. Do you realize how easy it is to hawk peanuts, popcorn and cracker jacks in a minor league stadium half-full of half-drunks? Very. But not so much when everyone leaves.

Justin Lantz is in town, though. So the silver lining here is that I have time to hit the town with JBL, maybe cause some trouble. More likely we'll just sit at Borders. Man I'm cool.
