Update! New plan. Not only am I going to IU, but I'm starting on July 2! This creates myriad problems, like finding a place that accepts pets. Finding a place that's open in July. Finding a place that's reasonably inexpensive. Finding a place in just over a month... and so on. We have found some promise, but it's not easy ( Read more... )

So it's come down to IU vs U of L. Practicality would dictate going to U of L. It's likely $70,000 cheaper for the degree, it's closer to more of my friends, and it's likely to be easier for Victoria to get a job in Louisville. We would not have to move, and I could continue to pick up hours where I work now to help pay back loans and ease my ( Read more... )

I got into IU! So I guess the decision to stay here in town is not totally written in stone. I await whatever word on scholarships or fellowships may be offered before actually deciding to stay, but I don't expect them to be much from IU. I don't know quite the difference between IU and U of L's law schools outside of numerical rankings, so I ( Read more... )

I also realized all my correspondence with Charles Shaw of ( Read more... )

RIP Steve Irwin

Man, sometimes I miss my beard. I mean, not on really hot days like today, but I like how it looks.

That is all.

The anniversary came and went and I didn't even notice. I can't believe it. It's been three years now since Claire died. I wouldn't have even thought about it if it hadn't been for Coire asking me if I still had pictures of her on my computer. This led me into my archives where I found the posts surrounding her death. From there, I saw a link ( Read more... )

So on our last trip to Little Rock, AR, Victoria and I saw the Arkansas School for the Deaf (ASD) and more importantly, found out what their unfortunate (fortunate?) mascot is. That's right, they're the Arkansas School for the Deaf Leopards. Makes you wonder how many arms the school's drum section has. Oof... double the insensitivity! That one' ( Read more... )

I heard last night Steph's birthday's coming up. If I remember right it's tomorrow, though it could have been Thursday. That means Craig's birthday's come and gone. Sorry Craig! Some friend I am. For what it's worth, happy belated birthday, Craig! Supposedly people are going out to her family's land tonight. Can't say I don't know about it, ( Read more... )
