After at least two dozen aborted attempts to update my blog over the past year, I return to the blogosphere, tail between legs, asking all (one or two) of you (variably devoted) followers for your humble forgiveness. I shall feed your news hungry brains anew.

The following minor events occurred:

  • I got into UW Law, among others.
  • I accepted a transfer to UW.
  • I participated in journal write-on competitions at five different schools before I even knew whether I’d gotten into the school itself … all while still wrapping up the applications themselves AND studying for finals
  • I quit my job at AT&T. It was one of the most gratifying moments of my life.
  • I moved back to Seattle in nearly the most difficult way possible. I drove between San Francisco and Seattle 4 times in the span of a week, while packing all of my crap in between drives.
  • Michael accompanied me for much of this ordeal, enduring searing 100+ degree heat on final moveout day, countless trips up and down 4 flights of stairs, and a recalcitrant U-Haul employee by the name Lloyd Harris Jr., who insisted that “he ain’t gonna do it … if you want those trailers moved you’re [sic] gonna have to do it yourself.” The last drive was 17 hours of continuous Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, Tom Jones, and Ronnie James Motherf***ing Dio, finally ending at about 7am.
  • I am unemployed and loving every moment that doesn’t involve school. Unfortunately, I haven’t yet found a moment that involves something other than school.
  • UW is cool.
  • Making new friends is tiring, and I’m not particularly good at it.
  • I miss In-N-Out.
  • 18 credits is too much for one quarter.
  • 20 credits is way, way too much for one quarter.
  • I’m going to Germany over spring break for an IP law seminar.
  • Hank and Wayne are back to brewing, and we’re getting serious about it. Check us out at http://hankandwayne.com.
  • And finally, I’ll be staying put in Seattle this summer, working as a judicial extern for Federal District Court Judge Pechman. Means I’m projected to graduate in March of next year!

I think that’s it for now.
