Dakota Dispatch #3: The Office

My office is up and running! Not only is it easily the cheapest room I've ever rented, I also kind of smitten with it. It's in an old building and hasn't been used in a few years. One of my dad's co-workers is renovating a big chunk of the building's other offices to create a big apartment for his family. In the meantime, they're letting me camp out in one of the smaller offices. Here's an inside look at the place where the magic that's going to make me a real lawyer will now be happening.

One of my favorite features is the old light switch:


And I'm oddly charmed by the deadbolts and their round knobs:


Not to mention the thingy that opens the window above the door:

this is sooooo cool. I'm beyond jealous. I bought a parking permit so i could use the libraries at UCSD, where I never ever spent any time during undergrad. It's a beautiful campus, and I feel at home there, but I don't have my own desk. Jealous.

You're officially the coolest bar studier I know! I just have a warehouse full of dirty hippie UT Law grads. I have to pick my seat based on who looks like they've showered most recently.

Excellent! Making people jealous is my primary motivating force.
