Law School Libraries, Where Sundays Go To Die
Every weekend seems to get more and more random. Not a bad thing, but I am learning that no matter what happens, Sunday finds me staring at the ceiling of the law library wondering how I possibly convinced myself that law school was my childhood dream. I took some random mental notes along the way this weekend…
-My personal crusade against H1N1 was successful this weekend despite a scare that included an impromptu Vitamin buffet. I don’t know what St. John’s Wort does but you should never bite the plastic cover off.
-Has anyone ever gone to a football tailgate and met someone they don’t like? Seriously, my buddy Giles invited me to a tailgate this weekend and every person I met there was cool, nice, and interesting. Very excited that football tailgates are a legit part of the law school experience.
-Lifetime (Television for women) had a Lifetime Original called “The Haunting of Sorority Row” on tonight. How is this station still going? Do they have a PBS like annual telethon with all the former members of 90210 begging for another chance?
-I am a Cincinnati Bengals fan. I always have been, I always will be. However, hearing about the Patriots decimate a team like that today made me sad when I realized that my team will most likely never do anything like that no matter how good a season we are having.
-Hank Moody was one “Perfect 10″ model away from hitting for the “man cycle” in last night’s episode of Californication. How do you land that role? Outstanding effort Duchovny. Must be tough to play yourself on TV.
-My whole life I planned on going to law school but I never once thought about becoming a Judge. Now that I am reading all these opinions handed down from the courts, I realize that God knew to keep certain aspirations in check with me. The intelligence level from those of the bureaucratic cloth is humbling.
-Sometimes when I spell a word so badly that even the Spell Check doesn’t have a suggestion, I open a Google search and type the word in. Google always finds a way to get it right. I did that in the last sentence with bureaucratic. If Google can figure it out, why can’t the regular spell check? Is Google better at that too?
-Thursday is the new Friday. Friday is the new Monday. Monday is still Monday. Something isn’t right here in the law school schedule.
-My average bed time used to be 2:30 AM. My new average bed time is 11:30 AM. I have a feeling the new bed time is here to stay.
-Last random thing, a wise person once told me that if I complimented three people every day randomly, not only would my day be productive but three people would be better for it. I’ve kind of forgotten that piece of advice so this week, my goal is 50 genuine compliments. I encourage you to do the same. Let me know how it goes, I would love to hear some of these responses. Given the weather in Boston, I could probably use the morale boost.
I work in sales, so I’m a people person, and complimenting others is something I don’t really have to consciously think about, because it just comes naturally now. It really does make you feel better when you brighten someone else’s day. And as always, I love reading your blogs, because they always make me smile or laugh or sometimes just think. Though mainly just laugh.
