After trading in a small fortune for this semester's textbooks, I decided to spend just a little more a book that had absolutely NOTHING to do with the law or law school. This is my new book: "Goat Song: A Seasonal Life, a Short History of Herding, and the Art of Making Cheese" by Brad Kessler. I'm going to learn all about goats and goat cheese! The book is about a guy and his wife who went from NYC life to raising goats. So, as a warning, be prepared for lots of fun critter facts and possibly some rambling musings about how much I love goat cheese.
In other food news, I've become a dedicated follower of the great and powerful butternut squash. It's so amazing! I was really close to trying to make butternut squash ravioli last night, but I kind of wimped out remembering the great pierogi attempt of '09. (See infra). I'll just have to put it on my life list of goals- right in between 'win the nobel peace prize' and 'see Wayne's World dubbed into German.' ;)
Random thought of the day: Life is a dead end.

People and places
Back to school! Last semester! (this calls for many exclamation marks) (!!!!!)
So I'm back in Virginia and two of my favorite people are responding to distant calls to travel across the globe. It's times like these I wish we still thought the Earth was flat. Certainly if the threat of a hippo or kangaroo attack isn't drastic enough to keep them here, a fear of falling of the edge of the world might just do the trick. New Years Resolution: Donate lots of money to the Flat Earth Society.

I spent my break in Pittsburgh, where the weather seemed to know just how much I missed snow down here in Virginia. If only driving conditions weren't a contentious issue, I couldn't have been happier. Also, I think my back muscles are super strong from lots of shivering. I'm increasingly looking forward to going back to Pittsburgh after school ends. I don't like the idea of "settling down," but I can't think of anywhere I've liked even close to as much as Pittsburgh, so I'm trying to take that for what it is and not worry. And aside from being a great place, Pittsburgh is full of awesome people that I love coming home to and am always reluctant to leave.
Hunger calls! More updates later.
