i have been extremely studious the past few days. this has been mildly gratifying but mostly depressing because i see out the window, i know that it is beautiful outside and that i could be making myself a very nice sun tan but instead must sit in the rosecrans reading room and write about the hadith. this should cheer me up a bit:

Volume 1, Book 6, Number 319:

Um Salama further said, "The Prophet used to kiss me while he was fasting. The Prophet and I used to take the bath of Janaba from a single pot."
