Wow, I'm really bad at this whole thing.
No really....really, really bad.
So, apparently I started a blog, only to cease writing the moment I got to law school....hmm. No good at all. I think, if I remember correctly, the whole reason to HAVE a blog in the first place was that, supposedly, I would have all sorts of interesting things to say once I was IN law school....or something.
The problem is, now that I'm here, I don't know what to say. I mean, it could be one of those semi-whiney blogs...one about who I'm friends with and what I think of them and what I do on the weekends and how hard life is...etc. etc.
Except life isn't hard and I hate blogs like that anyway
The goal was to have it be ridiculously intellectual and informative, of course, and to spark anyone who ever read it to all sorts of wonderful new, deep new thoughts. The problem there is that, after 12-14 hours a day thinking about the law, the LAST, absolute LAST thing I want to do is write a blog about it!!!!
Austin, TX ( http://www.austintexas.org ) by the way, is where I live now. It's the 4th largest city in Texas and the 16th largest in the US...according to Wikipedia at least. It's also often called the live-music capital of the world, a little bit of California in Texas, "the blue spot Texas," and the Third Coast. We, as a culture, include a mix of professors, students, musicians, artists, politicians, lobbyists, and the other Austinites -- the yuppies and the hippies. The city's motto seems to be "Keep Austin Weird." Except for the traffic, it's pretty much awesome. I've never had quite as many quirky, wi-fi coffeeshops with fantastic music playing in such a short circumference. I rather think it's the 2007 version of Budapest in the very early 1700's. Then again the traffic is ridiculous...the lines in HEB horrendous...and you should definitely go to my mom's post for another view of Austin!
I wonder how the traffic was in Budapest in the early 1700's? Of course you'd have to factor in the difference between cars and horse-and-carriages ... but still... any answers from any more-committed-historians-than-I-have-become?
Sad news about my town: 4 cavers went missing last night just outside of Austin, and last time I read the news, they still hadn't been found. If you are in the habit of saying a prayer for people you've never met, say one for them please.
I think that's all for now, but I am hoping to get into the habit of more regular posting...so if you haven't forsaken me just yet, please don't!
Goodnight.

They found the spelunkers. I have to say, as I read about their misadventure, I did think, "I hope Amy doesn't think that cave sounds adventurous".
Also, I had to wonder how the friendship will survive...they asked friends to call 911 if they weren't home by midnight,and the call went in at 5 a.m. Hmmmm, five more long dark hours? Might mean no invites to Thanksgiving this year!
