Were the days I spent in the library just.... Reading books as part of my research.

I'unno. There's something about pouring over Times in an academic library that has this magical quality to it, especially since what I was reading was only halfway related to my actual research anyway.

Right up until one of the books I found became a central piece of my dissertation.

I miss that feeling of "okay, I have nothing to do today but try to make connections between the my work and the Literature, let's see what I discover." I miss the feeling of finding an interesting quote, then going off back into the stacks to find the source (with mixed success).

I just miss doing research, honestly.
