This weekend I'm off to Chicago, basically to see my cousins as well as my uncle, and meet with this well known attorney (no, I wasn't charged with anything- it's to help my career.) Of course when I see my cousins a bar will probably be included, which is nothing new. Hopefully this time no tablecloth sill be set on fire like at a graduation ( Read more... )

This is by far my worst year as far as filling out NCAA Tournament brackets.

All I have to say at this point is my 2L year better be glorious.

Well, I found myself looking back on this summer today, since it's almost over. As I've mentioned before, this summer hasn't been one of my best. I should have known that when I got threatened by a random drunk on my birthday for no apparant reason this summer was going to be difficult. So far this summer I've had that threat, kidney stones, my ( Read more... )

Haven't been on here for awhile, and this summer is almost over. With all the various calamaties that have occurred this summer, I'm glad it's almost over ( Read more... )

I have a feeling, but I can;t put a finger on it. It feels like something good is going to happen in the future, even while the present seems clouded and a destination seems unclear. All I know is this poem from LOTR popped in my head during these feelings. Here is the poem ( Read more... )
