A new era....

On August 24th, our year of VISTA came to an end. As you could probably tell from the lack of blogging, it was quite a busy time and involved me finally giving my last board presentation, Aaron working to prepare stuff for Paige-the-new-VISTA (I did that too...) and work on marketing materials, and oh yeah, driving hurriedly back across the country before school started.

So, now I'm in New Haven. I like it quite a bit. Classes start tomorrow, and I'm not sure which ones I'm taking yet, but that's ok. We get a bit of time to shop around and visit classes before formally deciding. I do have a meeting with my potential advisor tomorrow, so that's pretty cool.People here are cool, I love my neighborhood, and I can't wait to get going on academic stuff.

Aaron's in Ann Arbor and had his first day of law school today. He survived, and I believe is currently working on his reading for tomorrow. At least I don't have class every day...I get four day weekends and only 7-9 hours of class a week! He's supposed to call me soon, but I did hear after his class got out and he enjoyed the content quite a bit. Maybe he'll actually like this law thing, who knows?

Other news, relevant to the academic discussion because it provides much fodder for procrastination, is that we've set a date for the wedding: August 23, 2008. We've put a deposit down on a place and we're working on all the other important goings-on that a wedding entails.

I'm not sure that we'll keep blogging now that our year is over. I may start a new blog, go back to my LiveJournal account, or just keep this one for simplicity's sake. I doubt Aaron will blog since he totally gave up on the blogging this year. Anyone want to read a blog about grad school? I probably won't have much time for any other content...
