[Prudence]

Last night was the annual strawberries and champagne reception for the "woman of the year" put on by the women's law caucus at school. This year, the award recipient was the new governor. A classmate and I were standing around trying to figure out how to mingle when a professor we don't even know introduced herself to us and asked it we'd met the governor yet. We hadn't, so she had us follow her and she introduced us. Yay! Meeting local legal celebrities! Plus champagne. I should have champagne before every property class; it would make the experience more palatable.

But now I'm back at work after two days out sick. I have more energy and it no longer hurts to talk, but now it hurts to breathe. Damn asthma + chest cold.
