Happy Birthday, Andy

Tomorrow (that's Sunday, technically) is Andy's birthday. I suppose one of us had to be the first to celebrate a birthday here. We're inviting some people over for a little get together; a mix between birthday and house warming.

I find it strange to identify as a resident of Illinois. I still feel like a Kentuckian-- if that makes any sense at all. My identity has been so long attached to my geography that I feel just a little uneasy about it.

I really haven't made a lot of connections in law school. I know people, sure. I just don't feel like I did when I started undergrad. It did take years to develop a network of friends, but straight away I had Tony, Yetu, that other guy, etc.. It was like everyone wanted to know everyone. (Life felt so full of possibility...) Here, it seems like clicks have formed and so few of them are proximate to me. It is a redux of high school as so many people say. I suppose the difference is that I care a lot less about the opinions of others. That doesn't mean I don't want friends though. Eh. I'm sure that time will fix this problem.
