damn you, study muse
I've finally gotten to a point where I'm feeling really good about criminal law/procedure & so of course, I've lost the ability to focus on it. I just need to write 2 damn essays and 'just checking email' turns into an hour of doing nothing. crap.
Of course it doesn't help that I'm trying to fight off getting sick and just want to curl up on the couch and put on some trashy daytime TV. Although if I'm going to actually get sick, bring it on! Let's get it done & over with so I'm in the clear by test day.
I think what makes this process so ridiculous is that at this point I'm starting to feel like an old hand at this process. Granted, this is only my 3rd time through, but any novelty or nervousness is gone. The first time I think I vibrated the entire 2 months of studying from nerves. The second time I didn't do anything but study - 12 hours a day. This time I've taken a more laid back approach - it's not about how much time I'm spending, but just accomplishing the daily goals.
Which brings me back to those 2 essays that have yet to be written and are mocking me. Time to hustle...

welcome to my world, yadda yadda...
so I think I'm starting to annoy my friends who are out in the 'real' world with the copious amounts of email blatherings I've bombarded them with, so I decided to infect the world instead. Because really, my friends don't have the option of ignoring me but you people who stumble across this can ingore with bliss. And to those of you who choose to get involved, don't say you weren't warned.
I'm taking the bar for the *third* time and as a way of keeping Husband happy, try to get all my venting done elsewhere so he doesn't bear the brunt of it. Poor guy - he has to sit through me bitching and moaning a 3rd time. So perhaps this is an effort to keep the marriage happy.
