Just met up with Chris and Adrienne. Beat the Irish!

I gotta say, there’s something wonderfully subversive about staying in Notre Dame student housing and then emerging in the morning proudly wearing a USC shirt on gameday. :) Anyway, it’s a beautiful day for a football game!

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you… Touchdown Jesus. :)

I love this place… I was pretty sold on it to begin with, but my visit here has thoroughly reinforced my belief that it’s right for me… and I haven’t even been to the football game yet! :)

In response to my dad’s and (by phone) Andrew’s queries, Contracts really wasn’t that bad. The topic du jour — how contract law deals with software contracts whose terms are shrink-wrapped inside the package and thus can’t be read until after the product has been purchased — was actually quite interesting.

Torts, on the other hand (the other class I sat in on today), was relatively deadly. But overall I certainly enjoyed my day. The people here are very cool, the campus is beautiful, the atmosphere is incredibly friendly, and I can see myself being very happy and successful here. To be perfectly honest, my only regret is that I wish I could start now! :)

Notwithstanding the above title and all of this “cheer, cheer” enthusiasm, however, I will be wholeheartedly rooting tomorrow for USC (and for Heisman hopeful and former Becky Zak tutee Mike Williams), of course. :)

I’d say more about Notre Dame, but I’ve got to get to bed. And I’d say more about the Sox-Yankees game, but I don’t have the heart yet. Give me a few days… or months…

Two more Budweiser Clydesdales. “Look, they really are taller than Daddy!” one man said to his little kid.

Holy crap! Dick Vitale is here signing books, baby!!!

Check out the Notre Dame pumpkin!

The foliage is beautiful. Notre Dame is beautiful. Now I’m heading to downtown South Bend — the Budweiser Clydesdales are reportedly at the College Football Hall of Fame this afternoon.

My first law class (of many?) at Notre Dame. I’m one of a couple dozen prospective students sitting in on a Contracts class.
