After a while, I forgot why I came to law school.

Was it because I wanted a challenge?

Was it because I wanted to make a difference and help people?

Or was it because I hated myself and felt that I needed to be punished with 18 - 22 hour days, a minimum of 8 - 10 hours of homework a night, having to eat...

Holy shit!

Sox for the mother fucking win!

Undergrads across the street have been firing off bottle rockets for a while now.

And it was a most excellent evening!

I went and hung out at a mates house before we went. 2 girls showed up with a third girl that I didn't know. So, we talked for a bit, then we talked all the way to the fund raiser. She was just as OCD and neurotic as I am. While I vacuum the rug at 3 am,...

Cancer v. Marsh aka Team Andy

One of the 2L's from last year was diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma the day before final exams started. He is now living in Maine, but has to travel back and forth to Boston for treatment.

So, students in the law school have started a fund raiser to help pay for his medical bills. One of the guys has...

So...I have been staring at this screen for over 2 hours procrastinating. I have to finish a simple assignment for Legal Methods tomorrow. I have to write a mock memo to a member of my "firm" about his case. Simple, straight forward, 2 pages double spaced.

I just can't get motivated.

So, instead of doing it, I have been on SG and LF posting, and...

Now, I'm not sure how many people know this, because it is pretty specialized information, but food poisoning sucks.

That is all.

Well...not all is well today, lads and lasses.

Somehow...using great skill, cunning, and of course quite a bit of charisma, I managed to dislocate my ankle....again...

However, what sickens me is that I managed to do it while getting out of bed.

Yup...I dislocated my ankle getting out of bed.

I'll pause here to let you laugh.













Good? Ok.

Well, my normal wake up routine...

So...law school...fun times.

2 weeks down, over 500 pages read, and over a dozen briefs done.

Yeah, I've got this shit covered.

In other news, went to a new bar tonight for dinner. Aiden's in Bristol, RI. It's a nice place. The place was just my style: a burly bartender ready for the inevitable trouble, waitresses that while polite, didn't take shit from anyone, good...

So, first day of law school down, around 600 or so to go.

In other news, my plan to get "gourmet" used as an adjective by the general populace is slowly coming to fruition. My friends have already been converted, as well as some of their friends. It is only a matter of time until the entire nation is using it.

Examples of said word:...

Today I have relearned something which I sometimes take for granted:

ADD and OCD do not mix very well.

I was trying to hang a picture in my apartment. It is a large walk up attic that was converted into an apartment. There are storage compartments in the eaves of the attic with doors that close to conceal the things inside. The wall is about...

Good news today. I have completed the first stage of my health and fitness program.

Mid May - 190~ lbs.

June 29 - 172 lbs.

It is weird, my old jeans from high school (which are awesomely worn out in the right places from the general tom-foolery of the young and stupid) actually fit me better now than they did back then.

The next step...

Finally found myself an apartment near the law school. Everything else in the area for rent/lease was a either a pit or way too expensive. The last place on my list turned out to be the place I chose. It is on the third floor of a newly remodeled house from the 1850's. Good sized main room, big bedroom, nice kitchen. About 3 miles from...
