Finished
Yesterday, I finished my last exam in law school.  But long experience has taught me that it’s not over until…..the register posts the grades.  So I have another month to wait.  But at least I’m not studying Patent Law in that month!

This is a fun little site that I ran across - collects interesting music I’ve never heard before - but I like a lot of it.  And it has a flash/podcast radio thing that now is playing in the background.  Fun.

Spring is passing too quickly...
Today was beautiful enough that I almost thought I was back in Los Angeles. The trees are pink! I love it. I’ve been hiding in my room, studying for finals, hoping that everything will stay in bloom until I could re-emerge. Although I did see one of those guys pretending to be a bronze statue in the park today. That was amusing. Perhaps not as amusing as the crazy 70 year-old...

Ate at Rocky’s in Little Italy this evening.  The service was okay, the food was very good, and the company was even better (yay!).  In fact, the food was so good that I actually finished it.  It’s been a long time since I’ve finished food when eating out - they usually serve too much and then I get bored with eating.  But their Carbonara was amazing.

I also finished “A Rumor of Gems” the other day (see March 29 entry).  I was surprised - it was a random pick from the library shelves, and my expectations weren’t very high.  But it was amazingly imaginative.  Every time I thought I had her world figured out, a new aspect would be introduced.  I thoroughly enjoyed it.
