I like bananas.

I know that was completely random, but then again, this blog was set up for my random thoughts. And as I stared at the screen, realizing that I have no idea where to start, that is the first thing that I thought of. Weird, huh?

On to an update of life. I've been in Jersey for the past 4 days with Trish. Well, not really in Jersey the whole time. See, I got here on thursday, after sitting in traffic for EVER in Conn. and NY. BTW: Conneticut is the 6th ring of driving hell. Yes, Conneticut is the glorious place where massholes and jersey drivers get the joy of truly intermingling on the same highway, with some Conneticut folks and a smattering of NYers to run into. Needless to say, I had enough time that I was not moving to actually pull out my laptop and type a memo on one of my cases before we moved again. EVIL.

After arriving on thursday, my friend and I hung out for the evening, and crashed relatively early. Friday I went with her to work, and spent my time working on my cert. paper. Bleh. It still sucks, btw. Happily, we went to a bar here in jersey that night, played some pool and met a few cute boys (although I think Trish was gonna kill my partner for the evening...)

Saturday we headed off to the city, where we were meeting up with Deb to head off to see our friend Chris perform improv. This was the first time in like a year that I have seen either Chris or Deb, and the first time we've all been together since I was a 1L. Yes, that is VERY sad, I know, considering that we all live in the Northeast, and it is totally my fault. **sigh** I know, I am lame.....

Chris's show was wicked funny, and I got to go onstage for one of the skits and do sound effects. I laughed a LOT, which is always a good sign for a comedy show. :-) Afterwards we went to a bar, chatted a bit, and then Chris had to catch a train back to Conn. boooooo.... So Deb, trish and I met up with their friend Alan, and we drank a bunch more before crashing at his place. The next morning, three mildly hung over girls trudged off to Penn Station to catch the trains back to Jersey (Deb on one, Trish and I on another.) Sucks, cuz I never get to see Deb anymore (not that there is no love for Chris, but I'll see him in 2 weeks...) But the train ride back was entertaining (see Trish's page for a better idea of our trip home.) Spent the better part of sunday afternoon relaxing and watching Chasing Amy (which I haven't seen in forEVER!)

Today consisted mostly of me waking up to my friend getting ready for work, dragging myself up, starting some more research for my evil paper, jogging to the ocean, realizing halfway there the ocean was NOT as close as I thought, buying some groceries and cooking some steaks for dinner (and hopefully making my friend stress less, and acutally eat something, which seems to have worked quite nicely, since she is sitting here singing right now, and actually ate a real meal for dinner...)

Tomorrow I am off to Rhode Island to see Kari and Byron for the afternoon, and then back to Boston to get back to my "real life" which is not nearly as much fun as the fake one I have been living for the past 4 days. Man, I miss my college friends. I need to see them MUCH more often then I get to now...
