Today turned out to be a great day. Not only is law school officially behind me, but I also got to go out to eat with my Sweetie. We did use a gift card from one of my graduation gifts, and we ended up with a waiter who was a former boyfriend and current regular …

We Did It! And, an Inspiration
It is official! We did it! We all made it through the rigors of law school and came out on the other side, still alive and well. I have been crying ever since grades came out, and I’m still crying as I write this. The dream I had from way, way back, so very long …
Three Hour Tour of Constitutional Law
I just survived a three-hour tour of constitutional law, which has to be one of the most boring subjects I have ever studied, other than possibly a college class I have chosen to forget. It’s a necessary evil for the bar exam, but it makes one want to pull one’s hair out from the roots …
Mud and a Party
Tonight, we went to see Mud, with Reese Witherspoon and Matthew M. I never know how to spell his name other than “Hottie”, so I just leave it at M. Anyway, we wanted to see it since it was filmed here in our home state, and many of our friends either had contact with the …
I Want to Do Something Amazing
This morning, I woke up a bit depressed. I have nothing really to look forward to today other than bar prep. It’s a means to an end, but the lack of doing anything else for any length of time, other than bar prep and work, is getting old. I know…only 45 days left until the …
JD, Now What?
So many people have asked me what I will do now that I’m out of school, and my response is usually the same, “I’m not sure yet.” I get the “look” when I say this, of course, because I think most folks think that either the jobs out there are plentiful (they’re not) or that …
Tahiti, Brought to You by Amex
Today I did something that made me a little bit nervous, although I’ve known it was going to happen for the past six years. I mean, we’ve been saving them for six years. But still… I just used 400,000 American Express points to pay for a trip to Tahiti. Why would I do this? Because …
Window Film & Music
I set out this morning with the best of intentions to get right to studying. It hasn’t happened yet. I have been, instead, applying shade film to the windows in the office, cleaning up dog puke, washing towels, and listening to music. I know. I should be studying, but I really just needed a break. …
Organizational Habits
So, I had to take a personality test at work. It was the same type stuff that we took in college. I mean, really, after all I was a psychology major for goodness sake. We studied about those things incessantly. I think they have their place and they do good things, but I have to …
Bittersweet Day
Today was bittersweet. We sold our house and it closed on Thursday. We have until this coming Tuesday to vacate, 11am to be exact. We have moved everything out of the house, but we had to go back over today to clean the place. It was bittersweet. We have bought land upon which we wish …
