Oops, he did it again

I really thought John Mayer couldn't quite top Bigger Than My Body for spot-on "how it feels to be mid-20s" lyrics. Seems he's nailed the late-20s too. Check out Stop This Train here. Homeboy made me cry. At my desk at work. Oy...

How'd I get so old?

My back hurts. I am adamantly and bullheadedly blaming this on what must be a mattress at the end of its life. There can be no other explanation, as I am still a young whippersnapper. Right? RIGHT?

Why I love W&L

It's one of the few universities in the country where this happens. It's a long article, but this is really what I love about W&L. It's not just your average school, it's a place where kids go, and they just don't leave the same person. That happens at a lot of colleges, I know, but it feels different at W&L. There's a real values change in anyone who's spent four years "on their honor," challenged by professors who actually know your name and how many times you've been to class, and in an environment where the reunion of the country truly looks like a miracle every day.
