Preparing for Snow In Atlanta
So Y'all, apparently it is going to snow tomorrow in Atlanta, and this sucks sucks sucks because I have class tomorrow, and Saturday, and Sunday- - -
And I really want to know, what is the whole deal with people running out to the grocery stores and clearing them of bread and milk when it snows? Is there some special thing people make with bread and milk when it snows that I don't know about? People who have eaten nothing but frozen pizzas and Slim Jims since leg warmers were fashionable are buying bread and milk.
Y'all this is Atlanta, and while I am thoroughly in favour of your asses staying the heck home when it snows, cos God knows Atlantans cannot drive in any kind of weather whatsoever, we are going to get like a quarter inch and if you try really hard you might scrape up enough to make a clay snowman and it is going to melt in about two hours. You are not going to be trapped in your house for a week.
Also, why don't the liquor stores get emptied out? If I thought i was going to be trapped in my house for a week, it would be much more reasonable to stock up on gin.
I've been waiting for Rush to blame Obama for the blizzards and then for Obama to turn around and blame the Bush administration.
Anyhow, it did snow, and a whole LOT of it, but I did not enjoy it. So I was checking on the weather Friday in class post lunch, and the minute I saw it was coming down, I fled.
My feeling about snow is: White flaky death! I cannot drive in it! Other people cannot drive in (actually, any kind of weather) Aaah aaah aaah!
The Kaplan lady was amazed at this. You're leaving because it's SNOWING? she asked.
Yes, I said. She clearly felt this was cowardly, but I am from Atlanta. I know better.
A large number of people showed up to class the next day, apparently, but I was not among them on account of, you know, white flaky DEATH aaah aaah aaah.
I came up with this analogy:
Snow, you are like Paris Hilton. You may be pretty, but you are also cold, white, useless, unnecessary, cause wrecks, and I don't want to stick my wang in either one of you.
"Robin" had a hard time not complimenting me on this. "I don't want to stroke your ego," he started with.
O really. He is not really aware of the whole bar-syndrome thing, where I have to learn all the priorities for Purchase Money Security interests, and what a holder in due course is and mortgage priorities, and so forth, and really? There's something wrong with this?
Rebecca suggested we make a snow whore. I think that is a great idea, if I could venture out from bar prep land.
I listened to Sarah Palin's tea party speech. How's that hopey-changey thing workin out for ya?
Now I have a question, did you ever notice that when the Democrats start getting scared of a Republican, they mock them as stupid?
I really do not know how smart Sarah Palin is, but if someone broadsided me with the kind of questions she got right out of the box, I wouldn't do well either. Hillary is better prepared, I will give her that, she's been preparing for this her entire life.
But in terms of savvy politicking, the woman's got it down, and is building a pretty impressive brand.
Anyway, I am still stuck in Bar Prep land, B-4 days and counting, and frankly there is no way I am going to be able to cram all this in my head at once.
I am vacillating between hope and despair, and have settled on some kind of acceptance. On the one hand, I have the little voice saying, 94% of ga staters pass on the first try! you'll be ok! no one can know ALL of what's on the bar! You dreaded the LSAT and did fine! There will be people in there who didn't take a class and spent a few weeks with someone else's books, etc! You took both classes! And then there's the other voice that says, yah but what about the 6% who don't pass, and the passage rates for February are lower, and you know you haven't studied as much as some of the other people, (or any of the other people) who have done 75 questions a day and 4 essays and you haven't-
Well, I think I'm going to manage this like - do you remember (no you don't) that CRX C/D built in the '80s which had one engine in front and one engine in the back? I am going to use my Positive attitude to pull me from the front and my, um, areas of opportunity to push me from behind, or vice versa, and keep plugging away.
In the end, I think I've found some kind of acceptance. I'm going to keep plugging away, and making cards, and doing a few questions, and on Tuesday and Wednesday, I'll know what I know, and of course I don't want to fail but if I do, it's not as though they're going to kill you for failing. I'll certainly be better prepared the next round.
"Robin" also pointed out that I had failed to note he had flowers sent to me for Valentine's Day. This is true. I am an unappreciative so and so, because I failed to note this and they are truly lovely flowers.
So I shall now publicly thank him.
Now he says he's in cheap mode, so I daresay that puts paid to the future of flowers and now I'll be getting sticks from the side of the road artistically arranged.
