Play It Again Sam

So I've been thinking about wedding songs lately. I know (and have known since my Mom died) that my song for the father-daughter dance will be "There's Holes In the Floor of Heaven"

However, I really can't decide on a first dance song. B and I don't really have a song...but lots of songs make me think of us.

We also aren't very traditional...so we don't have to have a "traditional" wedding song.

For example, some possible options include "Hundred Years To Live" (is that the name? its the song from the chase card commercial) or "Patience" by Guns and Roses.

However...I'm very open to suggestions :)
Out of the Office

So its looking like this may be the first week of the summer that I have to spend the entire week in the office doing research without getting to go on any "field trips". :(

Don't get me wrong...I love our office. But its about 63 degrees in there....and I'm in a room with no windows.

However....bright side.....4 day weekend.....so only 3 work days next week!!! :)

Roommate

I know people who have roommates in law school....and love it. I, however, do not....and do not want one. I cannot imagine anyone (other than B or my dad or brother) living with me last year. I was an emotional roller coaster who cried, freaked out, ate at weird times, and spent most of my time stressing.

One of my friends was looking for a new apartment for second semester and wanted to move in with me. Fortunately I had the forsight to convince her that this was a bad idea...that probably would have been the end of our friendship.

What about you guys? Roomates? :)

High School Reunion

So a little over a month ago I got the invitation for my 5 year high school reunion. And my first thought was...absolutely no way in hell!! The thought of getting together with a bunch of people I didn't like the first time around makes me a little nauseous.

I was a nerd...and a jock. I was not part of the popular crowd. I went to a high school that graduated 104 kids.

How about you guys? Reunions anyone? :)

Congrats

I want to send a big congrats to Moonlighting in Misery who is soon to be a new Dad!!

B and I are so far away from being ready for children that it is not even funny. When we go to restaurants, we almost always are seated next to the family with the screaming kids. And it drives us CRAZY!! I personally would be dragging them out the door...but thats just me :)

Dinner Dance Pants

I found out that we have an end of the year party at our firm in another city about 3 hours away (the firm headquarters is there.) So I told my boyfriend that we would go the night before...the room and our meals and mileage are paid for by the firm.

He was fine with going until I told him he needed to wear dress pants...the one pair of dress pants that he owns (and we fondly refer to as the "Dinner Dance Pants)...that I bought for him...and now he is saying he doesn't want to go. He is just kidding...but this should be quite interesting anyway :)

Carmen Sandiego
In response to the post by Masters at the Art of Time Suckage, I am definately part of the Carmen Sandiego generation.

I am also part of the generation that watched Scooby Doo, the Smurfs, and Inspector Gadget as a child. I had cabbage patch kids, pound puppies, and matchbox cars.

I had a big wheel and a my little pony.

In the summer I rode my bike, went to the pool, and played kick the can until it got dark.

What generation are you from? :)

More Work

I think my favorite kind of assignment at work is the kind when they tell you to look for something (research) that the really think isn't there. Although I understand that this is helpful...its hard to know when you are finished looking for something that you probably weren't supposed to find in the first place.

Its kinda like being told to search through an apartment building to look for a key that probably isn't there. :)

Busy

Been CRAZY busy lately (hence the lack of posting).

I have been to 2 depositions, client interviews, and a small hearing.

Additionally, I am still working at my part time job (this is a continuing job that is on and off throughout the year). Why do I work a part time job? Because its sort of an addiction...something I really like a lot.

I highly reccommend finding something not law related to do while in law school...it helps break up the craziness and provides an outlet for the stress.
