After working for 3 1/2 steady hours today, I was suddenly slammed with a giant wave of tired. I kept thinking "OK, I just need to get through Wills, then I can stop. Just get through Wills..." The Diet Coke I grabbed from the fridge helped a teensy bit. So I finished Wills and then wrote out a super-condensed Corporations outline, because I think it's pretty clear that the Corporations flashcards will only be gone through once in the next couple of days and then I'm done with that mess. I figure I know a bunch of the Corps stuff already from having worked in Corporate Law in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for the past couple of years. I can fudge through the rest (fingers crossed).
I also did Civil Procedure this morning, which, once I got into it, wasn't as intimidating or intense as I thought it would be. I think I was worried because I was so freaking bored during the lectures and while making my notecards that I just assumed I would have a hard time getting what all the rules and things were getting at. Not so much.
So I came home. Tomorrow the roommates will be at work so I can study at home. I figured I could come home, take a shower, work on some essays, and eat something besides PB&J, cereal and apples.
Well, I took the shower and felt so much better. Clean is good. Then I pulled out the essay book. I looked over some that covered Agency, Evidence, Professional Responsibility, and Corporations and was actually feeling pretty darn good about how much I was getting just by casually reading through the problem. I still have 2 days to solidify some of the stuff, but I actually think I might make it.
Then the tiredness came back. So no more for today. I am taking the night off and starting afresh tomorrow. I'm sitting here with droopy eyelids, thinking about cooking my chicken with Wasabi teryaki sauce (Hooray for Trader Joe's!). I need to get back on a regular sleeping schedule so I don't oversleep on Wednesday (because then, you see, I'd have to kill myself). Tonight I plan to be in bed by 10 PM.
I can't even tell you how much I'm looking forward to the Bar being done. Of course, then it gets kind of scary because I have to find a job in DC so I can pay rent in DC so my future roommates don't hate me. And it's also kind of scary because I won't know for a very very long time if I passed the Bar.

I'm so happy to hear that you are going to be taking care of yourself tonight. You're right. No sleep = crummy bar job. And yes, Trader Joe's is a life saver.
Sleep well and I am glad to hear the confidence in your post. We were thinking of sending you a delivery pizza to the school but didn't know exactly how to give directions to where you were. Mercy food. :)
