OK...one of my largest pet peeves centers around people that don't know the rules of riding the Metro. And, I'm not talking about the thousands of tourists that ride our wonderful Metro system everyday...it's the regular Metro riders that irk my nerve...those that ride very often, if not everyday, and still don't know the flow.
So, for all the Metro riders out there reading this...observe the rules of Metro.
1. First of all, the escalators have two sides: the right side for the riders and the left side for the walkers...that's right, Metro escalators have a "passing lane." As such, if you plan on riding the escalator all the way up or down, move your ass over to the right side.
2. As you are approaching your stop, don't wait until the train stops to proceed to the door. Get up and attempt to move toward your door so that you can get off as swiftly as possible. The longer you take to get off, the longer it takes for people to board.
3. Have your fare cards out and in your hands BEFORE you get to the turnstile. What I cannot stand more than anything is waiting behind someone who standing at the turnstile and digging in their coats, purses, wallets...trying to find their farecards...while blocking the damn turnstile lane. Shame on you!
4. If it is rush hour, move all the way to the middle of the car once boarding the train. If you are at Metro Center at 5:30, you canNOT be the first person on the train, and then you have the right to just stop and perch at the door...while 300 other people are trying to get in that same door. Move all the way in, asshole!!
5. If you ride the metro everyday, get a SMARTCARD!! Why regular metro riders don't take the time to purchase a $5 Smartcard is beyond me.
6. If you are a child, act as a child. Sit on the metro and BE QUIET! The second most annoying thing about being on the metro is loud ass school kids. Shut the hell up!! There is not that much going on in elementary and middle school that you have to talk so much...and talk so loud!! Children just don't have proper home training these days!
7. Guess what? Another train is coming. So, don't kill yourself by breaking the door open to get on a train. I promise you (unless it's close to midnight during the week, or 3 on the weekends) another train is coming.
Those are the rules....adhere to them!
Thanks.
The Management.

I'm an Addict
Yep...that's right...I'm an addict. I am finally out of the stage of denial...and now I can accept my addiction. Only through acceptance can I finally overcome it.
And, what is my addiction...
Well, it's not crack...b/c crack is wack! But, one may argue that it is a form of crack...internet crack...called Facebook!
That's right...I'm addicted to Facebook...to the point where it is something like this. I wake up in the morning, turn on my computer, check me email...and FACEBOOK. I put my computer on standby...pack it up...get ready for school...go to the Metro...get to school...go to class...check my email and FACEBOOK. I leave that class...go to the lounge...chat for a few...go to the next class...check my email and FACEBOOK. Then, I am done with class...head to the library (actually, THAT is a bold face lie...I haven't seen the inside of the library since last year)...do some work...go to some meetings...chat with my students...go home...check my email and FACEBOOK! Then I manage to leave my computer on...with my email and Facebook logged on just in case there is an update that I need to check out (especially the commentary associated with one particular picture...LMAO). And, best believe, before I close my eyes for the evening, I check my email and FACEBOOK one last time to make sure I didn't miss anything.
I live a sad, sad life!! And, it's all the fault of JC, AL, MR, DA, TS, PJM, JP, JB, KB, SS, RF, PC, SC, JR...yep, it is b/c of all of you and your comments that I addicted. What kind of friends are you to contribute to my addiction? Sad, sad, sad!
On a random note, I finally secured employment for next year...and I must say I am truly blessed!!
Anyways, back to checking Facebook updates...I have to figure out some way to wean myself off of it...but at this point, I don't see that happening in the near future.
OK...and why am I also addicted to the Boondocks...and Desperate Housewives (yep...I'm ashamed to admit it, but my friend made me watch the first episode of this second season b/c she said it was a good show...and though I was adamantly opposed to it...she was actually right...and now my lame ass makes sure that I am in front of a TV every Sunday evening). Pathetic, I tell ya!
Yep...that's right..I'm an addict!

We Were Robbed
First I must say...WE WERE ROBBED!! Yep...that's right...GWBLSA was robbed...and there is a conspiracy in the ranks!
There's no way in the world that my chapter was not the chapter of the year! I REFUSE to believe, or accept it! But, that's OK...I realize that politics is politics. Best believe, though, that I can play that game too...and do believe that come March, the phoenix shall rise. But, it's just business, nothing personal. I love e'rybody!! (ok...not e'rybody...but you get the point, it's just a game).
Now, this weekend I attended the MABLSA Conference. I can honestly say that I thoroughly enjoyed myself. With the exception of the tyrant moot court judges, whom I found to be hysterical (yes, I was really laughing in the inside b/c though they were all cool people outside of the courtroom, when they were "playing their role" I sometimes felt like they needed a hobby); the food at the hotel; the Crowne Plaza (that lacked any kind of grand entrance...call me bourgie, I don't care, but can I get a grand staircase or a big crystal chandelier or something? Thanks. The Management.); the fact that stuff in Philly closes at 2 (clearly NOT a real city); ang going back to the Crowne Plaza, the fact that they were trying to keep my car hostage; the fact that it costs $29 a day to park; the fact that the Sprite at Tragos was flat (that one's for you, Pia); the fact that the stupid boat operators would not let my two members on the boat even though the boat was still tied to the fuckin pier....ok, so I have a lot of exceptions, but I truly did enjoy my weekend...and I can attribture the most of that to the GW contingency that represented at the conference. Our mock trial team finished third overall, the moot court team 4th. But, GW had me cracking up from the second we got to Philly. Classic lines of the weekend:
1) D (to the waitress at Friday's after ordering and receiving her amaretto sour...with a straight face): Excuse me, miss...I don't want this drink anymore...I'm a recovering alcoholic...it was a moment of weakness!! ROTFLMAO!!
2) K (to B): You shole is hungry!!
3) Let the record reflect...this witness is LYING!!
4) K (after the banquest speaker says that she doesn't know about unconditional love): She don't know Jesus!!
5) D (after doing our drive-by historical tour this morning...while driving home and seeing an old wooden house from the highway): And, I bet that's where Sojourner Truth was born! (this particular comment almost made me get into a traffic accident b/c I could not breathe from laughing so hard)
6) J (talking about B after their first round): I truly believed that she was possessed.
7) Me (at Fridays): Ain't nothing wrong with random bouts of bulimia.
8) D (at Fridays...and again with a straight face): I read that it was good for you to, every once
in a while, pick up and eat food that you have dropped on the ground b/c it helps to build up your immune system. LOL!!
9) B (to the waitress at Fridays after eating all of the chicken on her salad): Excuse me, I really am displeased with this salad. It is way too spicy. Could you take this back and get me something else? I've only eaten the breadstick on this plate!!
Um...B, I'm a need you to realize that you have eaten all the chicken and half the salad...talkin bout you only ate the breadsticks. Let the record reflect that she is LYING!! LOL
10) The 100 year old bartender at the hotel: Excuse me, where did they say the after party was going to be? And, what are the drink specials? LMAO!! Um...first of all, who invited you? And, second, you are 320 years old...I'm a need you to take your Andy Rooney looking self, put on your slippers, and go to bed. Thanks. The Management.
I tell ya....yo...I haven't laughed as hard as I did this weekend in a long time. And, I had a great time...can't wait until nationals.

I'm Over it Already
OK...so school started again today...the beginning of the end of my law school career. Or, as my mom puts it, the beginning of the beginning of the rest of my life.
Anyways, today I had Admin Law. OVER IT!! I mean, first of all, I haven't even purchased the book yet. And, then, though I truly appreciate the Socratic method as it forces me to be prepared for class on a daily basis, I don't expect the Socratic method to be used on day one. Why, you ask? First of all, many people are just "testing" out the class and deciding whether they will remain enrolled or not...so it is very likely that they will not have purchased the book. Next, some people just have not had a chance to purchase the book yet. So, don't start cold calling people on day one! Ask for freakin volunteers!! Had he called me today, he would have gotten one big WOMP WOMP WOMP...pump your brakes...I don't have the book yet. Thanks. The Management.
And...why hasn't my financial aid arrived yet. I mean, they SAY that it was mailed on 12/30...by 2 day express. So, I mean...shouldn't it have posted to my account by now? Someone has my money...and I am going to have to go Inspector Gadget on their ass!!

Texas BITCHES!!!
Now...I must admit, normally I don't like anything from Texas except for Beyonce and UGK (ok..plus the rest of Destiny's Child, Mike Jones, Paul Wall, Chamillionaire, chopped and screwed...yada yada yada). But, other than that, I don't like Texas!
Last night, however, I was on the Texas bandwagon b/c I am sooo sick of hearing about USC. Fuck USC!! I mean, if you have 2 Heisman trophy winners on one team, you are SUPPOSED to be good...so stop damn talking about it.
All I have to say is that Vince Young showed both of those Heisman trophy winners that HE is the man! That kid showed the hell out! Over 460 yards...with 200 of them rushing...a QB rushing for 200 yards! And, let's not mention his 3 rushing TDs. Reggie who? Last night, Mr. Bush was quiet...LenDale White was doing all the work. But, even he couldn't match Vince Young who was outstanding!! Or, as SI.com put it, he was In-VINCE-ible. lol
So hats off to Texas for winning the national championship!
And, hats off to the best conference in college football...the SEC...for having 5 teams in the top 15 in the final rankings!! (you know I had to throw that in...GO GATORS!!) lol
