Committee on Admissions

Woo woo, I've been certified for admission to the DC Bar!  Soon I will be a dual-licensed attorney.  No, that's not a real phrase, I don't think. But doesn't it make me sound way smarter than I actually am?  That's really all I'm going for here.  And yes, I did, as a matter of fact, submit my application way back in April.  No, I don't know what took so longer for them to process it.  It's sure not the skeletons in my closet, I can tell you that much.  Nope.  Nothing to see here folks, move it right along now.

Las Photos de Espana!

Well it only took me a month, but I finally put up my pictures from Barcelona and Madrid.  Madrid I thought was just alright - certainly fun for a vacation, but really, Barcelona was where it was at!  Either way, I had such a great time while I was there... who is ready to book a return trip with me??

Cabbies Who Stalk

Today as I left work around 9pm or so, I hailed a cab to go home, seeing that it was raining and firm policy allows me to do this.  A minivan taxi comes speeding my way, I open the door, reminisce about the ol' Oldsmobile Silhouette, and hop in.  Before I could tell him my destination, the cabbie says to me, "33rd and 8th, right?"  As it turns out, this is his fourth time picking me up from this location, and he even commented, "wow, you're getting off early tonight, huh?"  Sure enough, he dropped me off right in front of my building.  He's a cool guy and I remember him from once before, so it all works out.  Still though, should I be pleasantly surprised, or slightly worried?

Come at me, bro

I know. I shouldn't do it. But I will. At the risk of making this a Jersey Shore blog, which it is not, because you know, I'm better than that... I came across this video tonight and I think it's the most amazing video ever.  Yeah you got it.  It's Little Jersey Shore. MAN, this is such a great show!  Also, I can't believe I'm a 26 year old lawyer watching -- and loving -- this crap.  Watch the video after the jump.  Sorry Sarah, I know you hate jumps.  But the video won't fit in this little bitty box.

Trains on Time

Today the "Captivate Network," the little screen in the elevator at work, had a headline: "Girl Hit by Train; Causes Amtrak Delays."  My question is, who's first thought was "Oh my goodness, did the train make it to the next station on time?!"  Honestly, people.

Vote 4 Brian!
