I saw Kristen at her lunch break today. I brought hot dogs.  I also brought soda, which we never drink.  I went Stewart’s Cream, full-on sugar.

She was well.  We ate and then sat in the sun for a bit while she flipped through a few flashcards. 

I hope the afternoon went well.  In my afternoon session there was a question where I had no idea what area of the law they were trying to test.  Friend Emily reminds me that her year, on one essay question had a “part 2″ that she didn’t dsicover until the proctor called time for that question and she flipped the page to what she thought was the next question.

In any event, it is an exhausting day, and, tomorrow, you have to take the evil MBE.  Your brain is bruised and beaten, your hand is killing you from writing or typing. 

So, let’s have a little levity.

These are the searches that got people here to Belly Up to the Bar Exam yesterday, the day before the bar exam began here in Connecticut and in many other states:
