It's that time again

I've already done one grad school application (actually, reactivated an application from last year), and I promised myself that I'd do some more in October. I checked my e-mail this morning, and found an advertisement/request for application from a university I haven't tried before. Now, there was a reason I didn't bother with it before; I have my doubts about living in the area where that university is located. This morning, I went to the website because I figured it couldn't hurt to take a look. I still have my doubts, but OMG, one of the professors is PERFECT. Her area of expertise is EXACTLY the field that I want to learn more about and do extensive work in for the foreseeable future, she is accepting graduate students, and, though I try not to make snap judgments, everything I've seen so far points to her having the kind of personality that meshes well with mine. I'm thinking about contacting her this week.
