It's Friday!!!
(Wooo!!!! 17 minutes left!)
It's really not a negative feeling, just kind of... unproductively goofy. It feels like a Friday.

Business Organizations is Finished!
I took the final exam for Business Organizations this afternoon. It was supposed to be a three hour test, so I was a bit surprised when the computer came up with a 2 hour time limit - it turned out the exam file I got from the college was slightly erroneous. But we got that straigtened out.
I'm sitting in Panera Bread right now, enjoying a (short) evening out.
It's nice.

Coffee Dan
I have been charged with the honor/distinction of managing the audio equipment for the conference, which includes two translator stations and appropriate broadcasters and recievers for a group of spanish speaking attendees and a group of Romanian attendees. This has involved a lot of running around, obtaining and configuring all manner of cables and adaptors. And radios for the recievers.
I was up until 5:45 yesterday morning (Tuesday) getting things ready, got six hours of sleep (yeah, I know- that's plenty. Yeah, right.), then continued running around all afternoon getting everything ready to go for the opening session at 7:00 pm last night (Wednesday).
I was pretty zonked all afternoon.
Until I went to Coffee Dan's.
About two years ago, a friend of mine told me about the most wonderful coffee store right down the street from us. At the time (yea verily, until this evening) I was not a coffee drinker, so I never bothered to check it out. This afternoon, zonked that I was, I went to see what I could find at the coffee place.
Coffee Dan's is a side business of West End Roastery, a manufacturer of coffee roasting equipment which is reputed to be some of the best in the world. They sell a variety of coffee beans (whole or fresh-ground) from Guatemala, Costa Rica, Ethiopia, Hawaii, and probably several other places I didn't notice. They also sell coffee beverages- coffee, esspresso, cappucino, latte, etc. I ordered a latte with macadamia nut syrup and was astounded. It was amazing. It was just incredible.
I also bought a pound of fresh roasted (1 or 3 days) fresh ground (on the spot!) Costa Rican coffee. I tried it out this evening (Wednesday), and I think I'm now a coffee drinker.
Quinton would be proud.

Quick Update
The last several weeks have been very busy for me. They've gone by really fast.
To recap: I had final exams in the third week of July, so most of that
month was taken up by studying and reviewing for Evidence and Criminal
Procedure. I don't think I did too well on either test, but I'm pretty
certain that I did well enough that I won't have to do them again.
After finals, I went home for a week. It was a quick week.
The next week (first week of August) I started the second semester of
third year, and was involved in a wedding.
The week after that was trying to get ahead a few days in studies for...
Last week.
Last week I took an Appellate Advocacy course. It was intense.
Basically, our assignment was to prepare oral arguments for a Supreme
Court appeal concerning the Newdow Pledge of Allegiance case.
This week I'm catching up on the 'normal' study schedule.

Life is Good
Life is good.
Hectic, scrambled, nervous and packed, but good.
No, wait- that should read:
God is good.
Orderly, staightforwardly, confidently and timely. Very good.
