MPRE

This week, I signed up for the MPRE (Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination), which tests the "knowledge and understanding of established standards related to a lawyer's professional conduct." I've heard that, as long as you have a fairly decent moral compass, you'll do fine.

So maybe I'll be okay, after all, if I exhibit a "very well-developed sense of what is Right and Wrong"...

You are a Social Liberal (60% permissive) and an... Economic Liberal (26% permissive) You are best described as a: Democrat Link: The Politics Test on Ok Cupid Also: The OkCupid Dating Persona Test

Hippity Hop

Tonight a cute little brown-with-a-white-tail bunny ...ran? ...hopped? ...skittered across the road as I was driving home. No, I did not hit it.

But can anyone tell me when wild bunnies became city dwellers?

Tour-o Tour-o

My friend has been in town for the past week, and I've been squiring him around to all of the "hot spots." Let me just say that being a tourist is exhausting. That being said, I'm happy we got a chance to go to the Art Institute and see the collection of mini rooms. Those were super cute and original. I also was pleasantly surprised by the Museum of Contemporary Art. An especially fun discovery was Chris Uphues, who was their 12 x 12 (12 young Chicago artists over the next 12 months) feature of the month. His paintings are a lot of fun, and the level of detail he puts into each of them is hugely impressive.

That being said, man ALIVE does my friend love American vice foods. In addition to his already-existing love of two-bite brownies, Haagen Dazs Pineapple Coconut ice cream, and macaroni and cheese, he's fallen in love with Original Pancake House omelettes, Cold Stone Creamery ice cream, and Giordano's stuffed pizza. Not that I blame him (for the most part) -- I love Cold Stone as much as the next, but, holy man, I can just feel my arteries clogging. *choke choke* I think I need to detox afterwards. Any suggestions?

Observation

In My Best Friend's Wedding, Julia Roberts's character is a food critic. Her character also smokes cigarettes. Incongruity?

No News

No news is...no news, it seems.

That's okay because I just ordered a set of 800 tc sheets. Ahhh...cheers to drowning the problem in online shopping.

Law Students Gone Wild

...or perhaps...gone native?

itsasony3: Have you done exercises where you were sued for battery?
odderie: Er...no
itsasony3: baah
odderie: Here's a hunch: Has a sheep ever sued you for battery?
odderie: *lifts eyebrow*
itsasony3: Why does everyone think I fuck sheep?!!!

Current State

Upset with the lack of positive responses from OCI. See: boatload of dings that arrived with yesterday's mail.

On the other hand, very excited that Nip/Tuck starts up again on Tuesday. Who doesn't like watching people whose lives are more starred up than their own?

Don't Let The Teacher Catch You

New Age-y approach: Has anyone tried to do a handwriting analysis of this note?

Trader Joe's, what have you done?

Why, oh why, did Trader Joe's stop stocking wasabi soy nuts and organic dried mangoes?

FYI

Just as an FYI, now that I remember yesterday's grocery trip, 4-5pm seems to be prime time for really hot guys to go grocery shopping. I saw at least four. And they were there ALONE. There's something about a hot guy picking out red peppers. Rowr.
