Long time, no blog

I've been taking a vacation from anything that reminds me of law school, so therefore the blog has been abandoned for the last month. But I'm back in full swing. I've decided to take a couple of summer classes that start Monday. I'm am so not ready to do this crap again. I was enjoying my frosty beverages without the stress of law school. That short little vacation has now come to an end. I did some random crap over the break that was sort of entertaining...such as touring whiskey distilleries, being stared at profusely by the crowd of a random redneck bar where everyone was missing at least 6 teeth (including the women), and of course my first Indy 500 experience. Unfortunately, it's about that time to cut back on the excitement and devote a little time to this whole thing they call law school. It's a total waste of time now, but they claim we will reap the benefits when we're finished. I suppose they may be correct.

Top 5...actually just the first that came to mind

I'm bored. So let me share the boredom.

Why I shouldn't have chosen law school...

1) The title of the blog is enough of an explanation.
2) I could have been working full time, making decent money. I would be several years closer to paying off my house that I gave up to go to law school. Instead, I'm now working less than full time and incurring debt that the current income is unable to offset. In addition, I'm renting a crappy shack.
3) I already established a career and now I'm just distancing myself further from retirement.
4) The law school stress is likely to reduce the life expectancy.
5) By the time I graduate, I could be called Doctor instead of Esquire. Doctor just has that special ring to it.

Why law school was the proper decision...

1) Much more money in the long run...provided that I make the grades.
2) One day I will have a yacht.
3) Long hours, but plenty of beer.
4) One step closer to holding a public office.
5) Cases are generally more interesting than codifying mathematical solutions.

More Jibberish

Year one is officially in the books. Of course it would be much better had this been the final year, but I'll take what I can get. I'm off to get some much needed shut-eye, so I'll get around to sharing my knowledge (or lack of) when I'm fully rested. I feel like something is missing. Like maybe I should be studying. Or grabbing a beer. Or getting back to my normal life. Ah, it's good to have some free time.
