Day 2 of outlining

That just makes me sound lazy, doesn’t it? That I’m only on my second day of outlining? I’m not lazy, I just had a bunch of (non-exam-related) stuff to catch up on after finishing a big round of journal stuff last weekend, and my exam isn’t until next Thursday.

Day 2 is much like Day 1: I am ensconced on the couch with my casebook, a Legalines keyed to my casebook (this is the book that smells like Raid), and an E&E for the first few weeks of the course. That’s right—I have TWO E&Es for this course. I love the E&E books, but there isn’t a “Business Organizations” or “Business Associations” E&E. So I had to get the Agency, Partnerships & LLCs E&E as well as the Corporations E&E. This is way more E&E than I need—I kind of flipped out as I was reading through part of the agency stuff yesterday and wondered if I really missed all this stuff on ratification and multilevel agency relationships. And then I calmed down and realized that I didn’t take Agency, I took Business Associations, and we didn’t go over that stuff. See? This is why, even if I zone out in class, the fact that I go to class is important. I know we didn’t go over ratification in any detail and I KNOW we didn’t talk about multilevel agency relationships in any detail. I hope. No, I’m pretty sure we didn’t. I’m good.

Anyway, today is Partnerships. Maybe a little on the formation of Corporations, if I get that far.

Oh, I also have a big cup of coffee next to me, and a batch of no-knead bread doing its second rise (having done its first, 22-hour rise yesterday and overnight). I can study like this—it’s almost leisurely, and leaves time for relishing the Christmas season (my tree is up).
