Almost Friday!

Random today-thought... the women's bathrooms at school all have pegs where one can hang her purse or jacket while using the facilities. Whenever I use the bathroom at school, I use this peg to hang my bag (because the floor is icky), and I often envision the combined weight of my books and laptop bringing the entire stall wall down with a tremendous crash... one of these days...

Thursdays are my toughest days - first I have Civil Procedure, which is my driest class, then I have Property, which is my longest class. Struggling through Thursday makes my Friday that much more enjoyable... once Thursday is over, the remaining blink of a day is all downhill, thank goodness. Civ Pro today was... as expected... even an awesome professor can't really make jurisdiction a compelling topic...

This morning I skipped a workshop on making outlines in order to 'catch up' on my reading for today. I'm not really behind in my reading, but I'm normally a case or two ahead per class and today I was not. I spent two hours in the library before class reading for both Civ Pro and Property, with the end result that I am now very ahead for next week. Now I really only need to read for Contracts and Criminal, and I'm saving my Criminal readings for the weekend because those cases are the best. ALSO we have a long weekend (hooray for Labor Day!) so it looks like I'll get some good work-time in this weekend, as well as some quality hang-out-with-friends-and-do-nothing-smart time (also important). 

Time for Legal Writing homework... we're writing our first mock-memo in chunks and we have a chunk due tomorrow. I wrote half of it yesterday... here goes half #2...

Q said...

So many bathroom stalls don't have those door pegs anymore - I think the rationale is that people could reach over the door and snatch someone's purse when she wasn't in a position to attempt pursuit (and while I never want to get my bag stolen and would probably be really freaked out if this happened, the image of a disembodied forearm groping around the inside of the door strikes me as funny).

Anyway, there's a bathroom stall in the library here that is sort of my favorite, because it's the only one in the room with a peg, and seems to remain cleaner than the other stalls. I spend much too much time in the library, clearly.

Enjoy the long weekend!
