When I spotted Autumn at Langdell, she had a book open in front of her, but her mind was on something else.  She was focused on feeding her fish in a computer game.  Click.  Click.  Her mouth was shut and her eyes looked at the screen blankly.  Finally, she spotted me and showed an embarrassed smile.

“Autumn, that looks like a really stupid game.”

“Hmm, yeah.  Dragon Warrior, why do I feel the lights here are dimmer than the lights in my office?”

“Because you are not sitting directly in front of a lamp.  You can move to the seat on your right.”

“Hmm.”

She looked at the lamp intently, grabbed its base with her small hands, and tried to pull it toward her.

“What are you doing?  The lamp is fixed to the table.”

“Yeah.  Hmm.”

Studying during holiday time makes people crazy.  Pairing up with Autumn lessens the impact somewhat.  But I hope next year will be different.
