Thinking ahead

25 Aug

This morning Dan and I got up early and worked from Stauf’s.  Dan did some actual work, and I was working on a few articles to submit to journals.  We came home for lunch and then I had to pick up a book from the library, so I decided to finish up working on my articles at the newly opened library.  Well imagine my surprise when I found this room:

ooh lala

ooh lala

Is it not the most perfect library study room that you have ever seen?  It reminded me of one of the rooms in the Boston public library.  Beautiful.  And it was completely silent (well except when some annoying girl answered her cell phone, tisk tisk).  It even has special less noisy cork floors!  It was so conducive to getting work done that it seemed like my article magically wrote itself!  Heaven.  I will definitely be returning throughout the fall.  Hopefully this will be a place where my dissertation also magically writes itself.

And speaking of heaven, I made chili mac tonight and it was awesome!  What a day.

    Okay, I have to ask, what is Stauf’s?

    Oh, dude, I have to take you there! It’s a coffee shop in Grandview and a really good place to study!
