May 12, 2007 :: 1L Life, The Summer, and Resting

This is day two after life as a 1L has come to an end with successful (I hope) completion of second semester finals. Of paramount importance, I don't think I failed anything. I have never been able to peg quality of law school grade from feel. In retrospect, it seems the british saying "slap-dash" would work, or in american geek: indiscriminant. We'll know when we know.

The photo is climbing on April 29th, but I hope to get some good climbing trips on this summer's weekends!

I'm still tired, and on the 11pm to 5am sleep schedule. Yesterday, I organized and cleaned the house for a couple hours, giving the shower it's due scrubbing (and it needs more this weekend). I did a couple errands and watched tv. It was a nice first eight hours of the day, topped when I was starting to doze in front of "Deadliest Catch: Best of Season 1, Part 1," Holly came home after eight days of being with her family. That was a nice treat, as she got home 30 minutes earlier than she planned...tailwinds, I suppose.



Then our day got even better! We got a quick snack together and fountain drinks at a convenience store. Then we enjoyed coffee in the nice warm afternoon shade before trekking (accross the parking lot) to a couple g-stores for misc sundries. Then we got to REI and spent too dang much money, again. Penzey's Spices in Rockville was well worth a lightning $30 spree of spices. Then a none too romantic, but wonderful dinner where neither of us left stuffed.

In summary, it was a really nice day yesterday, despite the heat/humidity, but I'm still tired, and will either visit M&D today or tomorrow, but I think today would be better, for the buffet traffic tomorrow is going to be hellish for all who attend, and I just want to give my parents a hug for all their support (no small amount, by a damn sight!) this first year of law school being now officially completed. Sigh.
