It's Over!

Finally, the long national nightmare is over. The bar is behind me. It was horrible...I hardly got any sleep and battled through grueling conditions in south Montgomery. It's done, though, hard as it is to believe. Thanks to everybody who commented.

I've been back in Tuscaloosa since Friday packing up my house. Tomorrow, a much needed vacation. Stephanie and I and the Doctors Lakey are going to the British Virgin Islands until the 6th (after which I move out of T-town). Strange as it will feel to be without them, I'm not taking my BarBri books.

Here's where we'll be:


Maybe we'll see some chickens down there and I can post something in the original theme of this blog! Chickens RULE! See you in a week.

Battle Stations!

It is upon us. My first bar exam. The Alabama Bar Exam commences tomorrow morning and runs through Wednesday afternoon. I'm to report for battle at 8am each morning at the Montgomery Quality Inn & Suites Convention Center. Check out the photos of this fine establishment.

Hopefully I'll make it through okay and live to tell about it later this week. Until then...

Here we go...

Puppies

Another quick update during a study break. Stephanie is getting a dog soon. Last Friday we met the puppies for the first time (can't bring one home for another month). Here's a picture. She'll be getting one of these, her sister will probably get the other.



The next day we went fishing, caught some yummy snapper. Maybe I'll put one of those pictures up sometime. Now back to law.

This is Awesome

Have you heard about this guy's experience trying to cancel AOL? Here's the NYT article, which includes good links:

"AOL Said, 'If You Leave Me I'll Do Something Crazy'
A frustrated AOL customer's recorded phone call to customer service has become the online equivalent of a top-of-the-charts single."


Especially don't miss the video entitled "A Comcast Technician Sleeping on my Couch."

PS - no news from Tuscaloosa. Just studying and following World Cup and Wimbledon. Going to Montgomery tomorrow (helping Stephanie move) and to the beach this weekend.
