Torts Is A Nightmare

I spent all the live-long day on Torts yesterday and I still get questions on comparative/contributory negligence wrong. I can tell you the rules, but whether I get the right answer seems to be random.

Negligent infliction of emotional distress? Again, I can give you the description and tell you how it's applied, but the difference between the two prongs is elusive at best.

Today I must move on to a different subject. Maybe property, which makes so much more sense to my twisted little brain.

Bah.

I'd rather be finding a place to live, and lining up a way to pay for all the tuition that's coming due next month...

In other news: GirlChild went to The Art Fair last week and brought home a pair of phenomenal earrings for me. I told her to spend my mother's birthday check (and if you know my mother, you know earrings are a highly appropriate way to spend her money) and get me something snazzy but work appropriate. She excelled. She will, of course, have many commissions in the future. I'll try to get her to take a picture of them for your viewing pleasure.

Hello hello! I just figured out how to get my mail to feed me blogs, so I've been catching up on my lawyer aunt!

Sadly we cousins did not get to see the earrings, but we heard tell of them. Glad you like them :) It was great to see GirlChild, the last time we went out for dinner together we went to Big Boy's, we classed it up slightly and at at Chili's this time.

Good luck with the studying!

I just wonder when GC will be exhibiting her own work at the Art Fair. Then it will be worth fighting the crowds, parking, thunderstorms, and other jollities to see what she has been creating.
