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.

It was a great day yesterday, so a buddy and I went to another law friend's apartment to lay out at the pool and get some sun. We hung around until about 7:30, and when we came back all my law friends were waiting at the place to surprise me! Of course, my birthday isn't until Saturday, so I was totally off guard. It was awesome, and our place is really great for a party. The only problem was that I was all gross from laying out in the sun and couldn't shower because all the guests were already there. But those sorts of things are secondary. Surprise parties are an incredible ego boost. Particularly considering that I felt like my roommate and friends were ignoring the fact that I wanted to make plans for Saturday and were giving me the cold shoulder. It was a great turnaround. And yes, the party was a major blast.
Now my campus interviewing is over I've got a few days to relax before I have to continue with callback interviews and then start classes. My plan is to explore some of the coffee shops around here and read some books. It's going to be nice to do nothing at all for a little while.
