two-and-a-half week wrapup
I got called on in Crim today. To be fair, I knew I’d be called on; I was on notice for this week. Of course, she didn’t get to me until the very end of class, so my time was shorter than for the other people on notice. Still, I think I did well, and I even managed to pull the four levels of mens rea out of my head in the last five minutes of class. It’s lucky, too, because we had gone over and the whole class was convinced that if I’d struggled, we’d have stayed till I got it right. Whew! Go me!
Basically, class-type things are going well. I haven’t spoken in CivPro since the first week, though, when I said something that made me feel incredibly dumb. I need to figure out what’s going on in there a little better. I mean, I get things when I do the reading, and I get things when he’s lecturing, but I rarely get them to the extent that if I did get called on I’d actually have something intelligent to say. It’s probably because it’s my afternoon class and my circadian rhythms really want me to take a nap.

Please, if you are on a train during rush hour and the train is full and people are trying to get off, move to the middle of the car. Also, if you are standing right in front of the doors and the train stops and someone is trying to get off and has to shove past you, don’t curse at her. That’s mean and pisses her off and she might spill her hot coffee on you in her anger.
I dreamed last night that I was smoking again. (I quit several years ago.) Maybe that’s why I was irritable this morning.
