I didn't set an alarm for this morning, which is always a bit dangerous, but I figured I deserved the sleep. Only I didn't expect it to go until 11. Today is pretentious semi-academic event day: a snooty "student leadership recognition reception" at the Sage Bistro, replete with senoir faculty, deans, and even the piper herself, and following that, the Poli Sci student association executive is having our collective grad photo taken.

At least Mom loaned me the perfect pair of shoes for all of this yesterday. When in doubt, footware. I almost can't belive how frequently footware passes between some of the women in my family... Katia, are you coming over to try on sandals soon?
