For there are brighter sides to life
Thoughts on the first class of my graduate student career:
I am incapable of discussing Cartesian dualism without thinking of "Still Ill" by the Smiths.
Studying Spinoza with people who have never read him is going to be frustrating for at least a little while.
But Spinoza's philosophy is the only one I am aware of that, when I consider it deeply, I am forced to smile and am tempted to use the word "beauty" to describe.

Here's to starting grad school today!

Are you as well? I can't remember. Hope all is well, in any case.

Weird, I thought Guelph started later than most schools. So are you also contemplating the death of your social life this semester?
