Finished up Tim Harford’s The Undercover Economist: Exposing Why the Rich Are Rich, the Poor Are Poor–and Why You Can Never Buy a Decent Used Car!, which was a fine read, though towards the end it kind of felt like a textbook. Still, I’d have preferred it to any other textbook when I took ECON 40.

I think one task for today is to get my books in order. I’ve got stacks upon stacks of them piled up around the desk; ever since I put the new bookshelves in, I’ve been bad about re-shelving.
