Long time . . . and all that jazz.

I haven't posted here since Halloween, so I'm providing a handy chronological bulleted listed to bring you up to speed on North Maple news.

• I went home for Thanksgiving for the first time in 5 years. Fun!
  
• While home, I was asked to talk about my "law school experience" with one of the constitutional law classes at my alma mater. Awkward!
• Finals came and went. Underprepared!
• Winter break came and went; I spent nearly all of it in South Dakota. Cold!
  
• Weather and circumstance also conspired to force me to spend New Year's Eve in Watertown. Quiet!
• Two days after returning to New York, I finished my "A" paper. Relieved!
  
• My classes during this, the last of my law school semesters, are kinda fantastic. Surprising!
• A couple of weeks ago, I visited my 42nd state, Vermont, for a weekend ski trip. Quaint!
  
• While skiing, I tackled what might have been the most difficult runs I've ever skied. Slow!
• This weekend, I went to Boston and consumed good food and good beer. Full!
  
• I also went to my first Presidential Library (JFK's). Inspiring!
  
• The friend I was visiting also took me to IKEA. Not-as-exciting-as-it-used-to-be!
• Today I saw Letters from Iwo Jima before heading back to NYC. Fantastic!
• Next week I'm visiting a friend in Amsterdam. Jetset!
