SUCCESS!...or at least completion...

So far, i have one class down - Chemical Dependency. i still have a final for Alternative Dispute Resolution, papers for Juvenile Justice Seminar and Infancy in Context, and for Clinic...well, Clinic never ends. Point being, I am nearing the end of my second to last quarter of law school. At some point, a little nostalgia is going to set in. I am both moving from my apartment in Greenlake and losing some of my dear friends (I mean, they will still exist, just in states far away). Right now, all my mental and emotional energy is devoted to trying to stick it out for one more week. I know, it sounds ridiculous. Who can't stick it out for one more week? But a mind is a crazy thing. If you have never had the sensation that your brain is literally rebelling, you don't realize how lucky you are. Mine is done. It is waving a white flag and surrendering, but not to me. It's surrendering to apathy. "No more!" my mind says, "I do not like this silly school. I cannot memorize one more rule. I will not write even one more word. This legal thing is so absurd." My mind talks like Dr. Suess...which might explain why it hasn't put up with law school very well. Anyways, one more week. Then SPRING BREAK! And I get to go see my dear brother and sister and maybe a brand new niece or nephew, plus some dear old friends. So yes, Mary, we are still on for Savannah, if you're up for it!

Update this thing right now. I see a fine layer of dust settling on this web address. E-dust is what we call it where I come from. I know you just visited somewhere special. I want pics.
