Gone to Texas!

There are so many, many things to say about this new step in my life. For one, it requires a change in blog description. For another, well, I'm in Texas.

I actually think that I'm going to like Austin a lot. I love my house and current housemates, and Austin is definitely big enough to be really interesting, but small enough to feel quite cozy. Plus, all the cool coffeeshops will make great chillaxin' joints (not that I will have much time to chillax, what with the teaching and classes and all).

In fact, I got to explore one of those awesome coffeeshops with friend Daniela not too long ago. She kindly took pity on a poor lost soul and showed me around Austin one Sunday, and we ended up hitting up the Spiderhouse Cafe.



I'm not sure how to describe it, but I think eclectic decor with delicious food and lots of Christmas lights just about does it. It's a great place to hang out, and it's close to campus. Plus, on Tuesday nights, there's a poetry slam that some of the students in my department plan to participate in.

Austin's a happenin' place.
