A Brief Update!

All is well in Bologna! There hasn’t been much crazy new stuff to report (Easter break was delightfully uneventful, but sadly hit that bittersweet spot of being long enough to be relaxing, but not long enough to be boring… Anna and I did hike to San Luca at one point… only to find the gate locked… so I persuaded her to trot along the road to find a perch for the sunset. Those who know me know my determination with respect to finding a good view…). This past Friday saw the last class of the little devilbimbi (the 8 year olds), at least until the summer camp in June… pray for me. We’ve been enjoying the advent of spring… well, to be more specific, I’ve been dressing like the balmy April it is while resisting the urge to shake some sense into the Italians who persist in bundling (with scarves and gloves! I ask you…). Sadly, my bare legs basically scream “AMERICAN!!!” (or “WITCH!!”), but I am willing to endure because… dude… it’s warm.
The cat persists in his cuddling (though his pointyness is tragic for our clothing… and my bedspread), but also his shedding. It’s been a long road, but he’s become quite the amusing personality.
On the “future” front, I’m still waiting to hear from a few law schools, but at this moment, it looks D.C. ish!
And, for the record, I am so lucky to find such tremendously good friends wherever in the world I go. In short, life is good, I’m keeping busy, and visitors are still welcome in Bologna!
