I applied for my Texas drivers' license last night.

Once the finished card arrives, I will be fully and completely a committed Texan. I even already have boots.

I feel really far away.

In the Good News department, our friend Jeremy is coming to visit in a smidge more than a week. We'll definitely work on Invisible City stuff, but we'll also have a blast tooling around Austin. Also, my friend Fred, currently living in State College, PA, will come visit me (yay!) at the end of March, partly so he can evaluate whether he might like living in Austin. Follow the example of these two folks, people.
