Jan 21st Early in the Morning

There's a research journal to be written and it is 6:44 in the morning. I am awake because I slept forever after coming back from trying to be a good student. Or at least for nine hours- which is about the same.
After a cuppa, I should be off to the law school at some point so I can enter the library bright and early, wander around in those huge stacks of everything (well not everything) there is to read about the law. I was talking to somebody in minneapolis who loved books and she said she liked walking along shelves running her fingers on the line of bookbacks, feeling the undulating stutter of the different shapes and sizes (my words.) That wasn't my favourite pleasure but I tried that out a few days later in the college library and I liked it. What I like about sitting in libraries is wandering through and picking books from different section, picking things I have not yet read, and piling them up in a stack and rushing through them one by one, learning new things. That's what I like- learning new things.

Enough of this rumination. I should make like a student and study, or leave to the library where I can.
I still haven't written back to that "top producer from London." I wonde if I can come up with anything funny enough to set the conversation going again. What do "top producers in London" like to read? What flavour of swashbuckling prose will they enjoy? Ve shall zee...(as I sometimes say)
