Please keep in mind that I submitted my application in November of 2006, and have just received word; this has been a greater source of stress than you know. Additionally, for those of you recognizing the conflict between work and school, I will be attending Marquette\u2019s part-time program and working full-time. (Yes, I realize this will be a challenge, however, feel free to look at the ridiculous cost of law school tuition.)<\/div>\n<p>On Sunday, we found a home we were very interested in. By Monday night, Todd and I had<a href=\"http:\/\/photos.mlswis.com\/met\/20070316143005918911000000.jpg\">bought a house<\/a>. I am very excited because it affords me many things. Those of you who know me well, already know the first thing I will do: get a puppy!<\/p>\n<p>Please do not misunderstand; all of the things I have been pining after are now happening \u2013 work, law school, and a home \u2013 all within days of each other. After spending that past two years of my life in an excruciating holding pattern of uncertainties and monotony, I have suddenly been thrust into adulthood at lightening speeds. I have never been this excited before.<\/p>\n<p>P.S. Happy Birthday, Papa!<br \/>\nP.P.S.
