Patsy rocks the LSAT

Today I found out that I got the score I needed to get into the law school of my choice.

The list is endless of people that believed in me and supported me while I studied and took the test. Twice.

Meanwhile, today is the day two years ago that I got the call that my dad had a heart attack and was taken by ambulance from his house.

Life is amazing and short and beautiful and heartbreaking.

I love you all,
Patsy

To-Do List for upcoming LA Trip

If Catalina pops out, weep and remember scattering Dad's ashes there.

Eat Mexican food for 3 meals a day.

Get a personal tour of a historic landmark where Mom is a docent.

Introduce divine CB (Cougar Bait) to old friends.

Blast KXLU whenever it's in range and be grateful. Viva KXLU!

Visit Topanga State Park and love the dusty earth madly.

Hit MOCA and gawk at all the great art.

Hit Little Tokyo and fill our bellies.

Show CB a fantastic time in the stark, seedy, harsh beauty of LA.

Let loose with the tears and the belly laughs with CB, who gets it.

Meet odd characters and collect hideous ball caps on the drive north.
