Study Hangover

I was up until 1am studying, or at least trying to re-learn how to study. Then a little after 7am the house was bursting with kid noises and so we went to the waffle barn for breakfast. I might have to take a nap today, but I'm back at the books already and its not even noon here yet. Contracts is basically done for next week and so I'll be moving on to Criminal Law. I figure with work and family, I'll have to pound the books on the weekends. My poor Tivo is really going to miss me.

Due to my late night, I didn't get a bike ride in today. My old teammate and friend, Mike Dempsey, was wanting me to do the Mt. Tam hill climb later this year. There is nothing quite like have a 50 yr old lady pass you half way up the climb, so maybe I'll not embark on that one this year.

First week update

The first week of Law School is complete and it's going to be tough. The good thing is that I've met some nice people in my class but they aren't going to be taking my tests for me, so I'll have to be studying hard. There is lots of reading. Lots.

Law School anyone?


Have you heard the horrible news? I'm going to law school. I'm doing an evening program with that will take 4 yrs instead of the usual 3 yrs of hell. Honestly I'm freaked out about it, but also very excited at the same time.

My first year classes are:
Contracts
Criminal Law
Torts
Legal writing

I'll try to write a bit about what I'm doing for the sake of those interested. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Tour de France - 2007


You can see stage by stage video highlights of this years tour at the cyclingnews.com website. Even with all the drug issues and speculation I still enjoyed the drama and the racing. The Discovery team has officially disbanded as of the end of this season, and so the winner and the 3rd place riders are now looking for work.
