Not hibernating... just consumed

I feel like a little bit of a jerk for having not made the 7th ward debate tonight.  I would have liked to have recorded and reported on it.  But, I gotta tell y'all...

This baby thing is something else.  She's up till at least three every morning. Ugh.  She's a beautiful girl, but when she's got her lungs cranked to full throttle at three AM, well...  

Anyway...  I'm not done making excuses yet.

I began taking the required classes for real estate sales people this morning.  8:00 AM to 5 PM.  Fun, fun.  Real edge of your seat stuff.  I tried mainlining espresso.  It didn't work.  I'll try rubbing habenero peppers on my mucous membranes Friday (next class day)...  something's gonna hafta keep me awake.

Alright - I'm done with the excuse making.  My point is this:  I'm gonna do my best to do what I can in terms of bringing you whatever interesting news I can (that you can't get by opening up the TU) with regards to Albany's storied electoral politics.  I gotta think that some sort of routine will develop sooner or later.  In the meantime, things'll be hit or miss.

Finally - I was not accepted off the waitlist by the last law school I had a chance of attending.  I'll tell ya...  I'm not half as disappointed as I would have been if I had received the news a month ago.  Having had Antigone for three weeks, I'm not sure that I'll ever want to take on something as all-consuming as the first year of law school (though I'm positive I will next year).  She's been incredible and I'm really looking forward to a year of wondrous discovery as I watch her develop.
