Goal: don't spill nothin

Here I am in Yale's reading room, located in the main library on campus. It's gorgeous inside. The architecture and grandeur are breathtaking. I'd love to take pictures of it all, but it's against the rules. (Why?) There are stone arches inside and it reminds me of castles.

I'm working at a huge table that can seat 24 people easily. There are three brass table lamps, and chandeliers above my head. The ceiling is hard to describe, but there are beams, between which are painted motifs in green and gold.

Tourists keep coming through and peeking in. They think I'm a Yale student. Mouahahaha! I look serious and busy because, well, I am working! No one needs to know.

Tonight, the conference organizers are taking everyone out to dinner to conclude the weekend. I wasn't sure what I would do, but Matt thought it would be hilarious if I got a table for 1 near them. He cracks himself up thinking about tables for 1. Instead, the conference people invited me to join them!! I'm so pumped. Not only am I a Yale look-alike, but I can dine like one too!
