just a quickie - the trip to denver & portland is going great! denver weather was just icky but portland is totally gorgeous :) It's going to be Portland - depending on whether I'm accepted or not. If I'm not accepted, I'll have to start over but I don't think it's going to be too much of a problem.

I spent some time with the CR director got a *great* feeling while talking to him (complete contrast to the experience at the other school). We talked for quite a while and the conversation was wonderful. I'm *so* excited and happy I almost can't wait. gotta run - more later
