Dreams of Utopian Summertime Bliss Dashed by "The Paper"
Tomorrow night I'm going to hear a lecture by one of my favorite authors, Isabelle Allende. I can't wait! Hopefully they will still have standby tickets, I can't afford the regular tickets. Ah, the joy of being a student. I suppose I can chuck my U of M ID now, I did get plenty of mileage out of that sucker.
Meanwhile, The Paper is going very slowly. That's an understatement. I have read only 4 pages of the first case. I can't get into it. I'm going to pack it up. Why fight it? It'll get done... later. Maybe I'll take Thursday off work to work on it.
Fun stuff for me at the office these days. I spent the day writing a memo of law and moving papers for a case about a guy who got beat up in prison. I also have an 8th Circuit Reply brief to do, and a BIA brief--those are both for asylum cases.
Unfortunately, Phil is out of town for the rest of the week, so I couldn't bait him into insulting my new purse.

do you get to do more/better/bigger stuffs now that you have 1 year of law school
you are "trained" as it is
I'm not sure how it's going to work. We just had to do some office re-shuffling (other clerk is leaving Friday, legal assistant about to start law school, and new legal assistant just hired & being trained in, old receptionist canned) so they're making me sit up front and answer phones for awhile, starting Monday. I'm trying not to throw a hissy fit. It's so hard to write stuff when you have to answer the phone every 2 minutes.
