I got home after a long day at work and a very rare but nasty yelling-at by one of my partners IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE HALLWAY!
And I swear to God, I didn’t even do anything! It was a miscommunication (his fault!) and he just flipped out. Have I mentioned that I really, really, REALLY want that paralegal position?? Pray for me, send good wishes, pin a voodoo doll — just send some luck my way! (After I recovered from the hell that was my morning, I took 2 minutes to go downstairs and get a lottery ticket so I’ll take luck just for that! Then I could attend law school full time and have only that to get stressed over.)
Anyway, that episode really dragged me down and then he made me work through lunch and stay a half-hour late. I barely made it to Pumpkinhead’s school on time. Actually, I made it at 6:35 so I had to pay $5 for each minute I was late.
My point? I am tired. Sooooo tired. I drank a VENTI Nonfat Sugar-Free Cinnamon Dolce latte on the way home and I still feel like a mack truck hit me. I have Law in a Flash cards laid out in front of me and I Just Can’t Look At Them! I was up at 4 a.m. so maybe I just need to go to bed now and wake up early. Thank the Lord, I have the entire day off tomorrow before my four-hour exam in the evening. I can’t even think straight to figure out what I will do tomorrow. The only thing I know for sure is that the darn housecleaner comes tomorrow so I have to “clean for the cleaner.” On the plus side, hair and makeup aren’t standing in my way. I think I’ll sleep now, get up at 4 to study and then take Pumpkinhead to school as early as possible!!!
Wish me luck on my Contracts exam! Any tips or awesome charts/mnemonics/random tips to send my way? Send ‘em to PTLawMom at gmail dot com. It’s closed book and my professor is a bit of a sadist because she went to an Ivy League school and, therefore, has to torture her students like she was tortured! So obviously I need all the help I can get!!!
