i'm just back from arabic and its hot and stuffy in this room, so this will be short.

i spent most of today working on a brief while checking the internet obsessively for an indication that the folks at the nlrb approved my request for an extension so i could immediately stop working on it. if they don't grant it, this week will be shitty. it was that kind of day. it was also my last day with chocolate for the next month. working furiously on a brief on the last day to eat chocolate is a bad combination.

politically, lots of posts in lots of blogs over there on the-hand column right are writing about outrageous things. they may be right to be outraged, but i wonder how most of them find the time. meanwhile tom tomorrow got a picture of my favorite bridge i see out the window every time i go to new york. here's his take on what it all means.
