It's hard to keep awake

[lloll4]

...when looking at the required reading for the class for constitutional law (the prof released the reading list a couple of days back). Like this intro/constitutionalism for dummies thing - doesn't exactly keep one on the edge of one's seat, does it? Probably it's because it's supposed to be a summary of some sort; judging by the bibliography, that is. And as a sidenote, it just seems to me that a bibliography that long for an article that's only 16 pages (printed) is indicative of either anally-inflicted pompousness or a rather weird form of academic insecurity.

I have acquired some doorstop-size books and there's a part of me that's afraid that the bookshelf will break if I place them on it, which is why they are on the floor, where a small stack has unwittingly become a foot stool.

Onward, anyway. Soon as I get more caffeine.
