You' know that you had a good vacation...

...if you feel like you didn't get any work done. And that about sums up where I am at right now: two weeks into vacation and not nearly where I need to be in terms of catching up. Oh well, it's been wonderful to be home and spend time with family and friends. I've even done some "catching up" on friendships in person and on the phone so that I'm not so far behind in my social life.

Anyway, part of the joy of law school is waiting for grades. Finals were over almost three weeks ago and not one grade has been posted for me. Guess that's not too bad--why would I want to ruin such a good vacation. I'm supposed to be reading for an upcoming intensive mediation class and working on my note. The reading puts me right to sleep. Not that it is bad, I just think I have become conditioned to fall asleep when I start reading educational materials. Hopefully I'll figure out a way to overcome.

These two weeks have flown by. I have just one more day here at home and I wish I had more. I certainly enjoy it here and I could never be sure if I like it better here or in the city. There are so many tradeoffs. It's important to have a nice break like this. (Actually, it doesn't end immediately--I'm flying back to NYC, spending the night, getting on another jet and going to visit a special someone in Texas for a few days; then the class starts.) I still have several hours of flying to get some of this reading done and I'm pretty sure the Texas flights won't have a movie to distract me.
