warm because it's like 70 degrees out! the grass is starting to turn a little greener.  there are way more people jogging outside my robertson hall window.  up the hill from the gardens, down the hill to the gardens, up the hill from the gardens, down the hill........i really need to start running.  i was joking today that i'm starting to look like the pillsbury doughboy.

i am nervously confident in our butler bulldogs hoops team.  i am perhaps reading a little too much online about seeding and brackets and projections.  i feel like they are getting underseeded, and hope we can come through this weekend in the horizon league tourney and get a nice 5 seed. this basketball year has been awesome and totally unexpected.  and the women's team too--great year!

i've started a somewhat obsessive project of listening to all my cd's, a to z.  my wife and i have about 2,600 cd's, and i intend to listen to them all, one by one.  i'm blogging about it at http://crossroadsduewekes.blogspot.com/.  there, you can read my semi-daily comments about the things i've listened to.  should be fun...

congrats again to all my admits out there, especially michigan.  things have been....a little rough.....in the old mitten state--my home state.  but, please let me know if there's anything i can do for you as you decide where to attend college.  i know a lot of you were able to visit campus and attend scholar's forum in february, but if you haven't yet, please give us a call or register online to come down and see campus.  also pay attention: we have a series of online chats coming up!  you should be getting lots of contacts about these.  i would really encourage you to log on because not only will there be admission folks, but faculty from all the different colleges, all there to answer your questions!!  stay tuned, or email me at jdueweke@butler.edu for more info.
