My second semester of law school starts tomorrow and I am sooooo not ready. I’ve been sick all week (Boo! BIG DRUGS not working right!), had to throw my mother a birthday party last night (it went really well), and had enough tear-filled family drama to last a year. I need another week (or six) to get ready, but I guess throwing myself in is the best way to go.

On the plus side, I did read three trashy romance novels, finally finished Chambermaid (yikes!) and took care of several household things that needed to be taken care of (new dishwasher, car registration renewals, banking, etc.). I went out to lunch and played a lot with Pumpkinhead. Sick as I’ve been, Chapin and I did not get to play. I also went to three doctors’ appointments and had blood drawn twice. Have another round of that to look forward to on Thursday. Boo again. Missed two days of work, which means two less vacation days to use for studying in December. Spent $200 between co-pays and prescriptions.

Wish me luck as I launch into the “hard” semester. I don’t have any work-related experience with one of my classes and my experience with the other is very limited. I’ll feel more confident (or not?!?!) about my abilities once I get my grades back from Semester One. Good luck to everyone else starting up this week or soon.
