in order to fix the last post's comments, i had to "hide" them. I've also gone into the control panel & made it so that only members of this blog can comment. that should fix the problem.
well...i've been a little delinquent on posting here, but i've been rather busy. i moved to st. louis on august 1st...i haven't finished settling in or setting up my room yet (there's no motivation to buy a bed when my boyfriend lives next door), but i've been having a great time just recuperating and meeting people. law school orientation started properly today, but there were a few coffee hours, and a party that someone i met at coffee threw last weekend, in order to let me meet people in the class before orientation even started. i love wash u so much...the people here are nice, and as snooty a reputation as the law school experience has, there's nothing snooty or stuffy about this place. even the deans were laid back when giving their welcome speeches today at the matriculation ceremony.
Today is my last day at the bank. Needless to say, I am very excited. :) And oddly enough, time is actually going by pretty fast. The whole morning was really busy. I can't wait for tomorrow, though; I'm very excited about starting my new job.

I'm reading (yet another) book about the whole Anna Anderson/Anastasia Romanov mystery. I've read a lot about it, because unsolved mysteries tend to bother me a whole bunch, so I do as much research as I can to figure it out for myself. The thing that I find most interesting is that all of her biographers start out assuming that she was a fraud, and the more research they do, the more they're convinced that she was the real thing. I think she was. There's too much information that she had that no one else possibly could have known, not to mention all of the physical similarities. They did this ear test at one point; they check 17 points on the ear against a picture, and if you have 8 (I think?) that are the same, that proves you're the person in question. Anna Anderson had 12 matching points to a picture they had of Anastasia as a little girl. The other really interesting thing I found was that, according to Anna Anderson, Alexandra actually had six children; in between Anastasia and Alexis there was another daughter who was adopted. There was a lot of turmoil going on in Russia at the time, and Nicholas and Alexandra knew they needed to have a boy (someone to take over the throne), so they never even told anyone that Alexandra was pregnant, and when the baby was born, they sent her in secrecy to this farmer and his family.
Here's what I posted on my site. Since I'm gushing, I'll post this here too!
