Have you ever sat so long...

...that it was painful. I have. It's actually becoming a regular occurence on Tuesdays. I am at school from 11:00AM until 8PM and it's not very fun. I have a class, a 2 1/2 hour break, another class, another 2 hour break, and then one more class. I'm just putting this out there for 1Ls to consider when they finally get to pick their own classes. I thought the evening class might be okay for me because it is only once a week, but it is also a rather dry area of the law and so it's hard to decided if the trade off was worth it.

I'm two days away from turning in my "final" draft of my note. I say "final" because it's just one more draft. It could stand to be revised several more times and it's quite possible that I will pursue revising it in the near future. I don't really have any expectations of getting published by my journal, but I feel like I picked a good topic that and that the underlying paper is certainly publishable. I also have strong feelings about the quality of my paper being judged when it is essentially something that I wrote on a few nights before a few deadlines. The topic certainly deserves more respect than it received so far.

We had the Blizzard of 06 this weekend. It was kind of exciting, rarely do you get to see over two feet of snowfall in such a short period of time. Unfortunately, it fell on the weekend and the city's sanitation department is way too effective and had the city passable by the Monday morning commute. It was the first real snow we have had this winter. Now, the next three days are supposed to get up to 50 degrees and melt a lot of what we have. I say a lot because there are some big piles that I don't think even three days of heat will cause to disappear.
