checking in
it's been a while, hasn't it? almost a year and a half now. nothing like imminent deadlines on a research project and a set of paper revisions to spur a man to inaction. that means it's time for a new image layout and some posting!
i'll save you all the monotony of a full recap. in short, things are going well. i finish law school in may, take the bar exam in california in july, and move to washington DC in late august or early september. i am looking forward to being a full time employee, for the first time in my life, after spending 11 straight years in the higher educational system. i will miss the friends i've made, though my addiction to IM and email will help keep the bonds from sundering completely. on a professional level, i am excited by the possibilities my job will offer to me, and i am optimistic that in the future i can forge for myself a rewarding policy- and/or academic-oriented career spanning the gap between law and computer science.
baseball's spring training has begun in earnest, and i am avidly following the media extravaganza that is daisuke matsuzaka. hopefully, with dice-k, schilling, beckett, papelbon, wakefield, and lester, the red sox will not have to start a single game this season with other teams' cast-offs. but, we shall see. expect more baseball related posts from me as the season progresses.
there are four things in this world that i truly love. technology law and baseball have been mentioned. as to the third, music: i heard mahler's 3rd last night, performed by the yale philharmonia. it's a very interesting symphony. stylistically, it's all over the map - it fluctuates between the light and the dark so often that i felt confused. i thought the performance was quite good; the woodwinds and the strings impressed me in particular. and while i enjoyed the choirs, they were singing from the balcony, which made them sound a lot more muddled than they should have.
can anyone who knows me guess what the fourth thing is? if you said 'beer', you're close; i'm actually referring to gourmet liquid beverages as a pantheon. coffee came first, then tea, and beer was third, though it is arguably the most active. recent highlights of my beer tasting include 'la rulles', a very yeasty unfiltered belgian golden ale, and the 1990 bottle of thomas hardy's ale that i consumed in washington last november.
well, that's my life in a nutshell. as the pathetic peripatetic calvin would say: more bulletins as events warrant.
