New Directions

So...it finally happened. I got accepted to law school! Come this fall, I will be working full time during the day and going to school at night. Now, this blog will have some direction...it will document my life as a wife, full time worker, and first year law student. Ugh...I can already sense the sleep deprivation.

Introduction

So...who am I? (People who know me can skip this section)

Aside from what's over there (----->), I'm 25 and have been married for a little over 6 months. I had planned to blog throughout my wedding planning, but that never happened. I was too busy doing everything myself. I took on most of the planning and *forgot* to ask others for help. Shame on me for being independent minded.

I married my best friend and companion of about 5 years on November 15, 2008. We have a very good relationship, depsite having absolutely nothing in common and each coming from very different family backgrounds. We live in a 2 bedroom condo with our puggle, Frank Sinatra. Husband ("C") works in the service industry and work in the legal department of an insurance company. Our jobs are very diffrent, yet quite similar.

My parents recently got divorced after 26 years of marriage. They still remain friends and support me fully.

I recently applied to law school (on March 15th) and still am waiting to hear if I got in. If I do, classes will start for me on August 17th at night (yeah...I kinda need to know if I got in like NOW). I come from a legal family and have 1 younger sister. She is an accountant. One of us was destined to be a lawyer. It's in our genes. As far as the blog title, a favorite courtroom saying.

I am a member of Weight Watchers and have lost around 35 pounds. I am not a strict dieter but I am conscious of what I eat and have a goal to lose around 40 more pounds, but I'm in no hurry.

I recently quit smoking (January) after about 7 years and have replaced nicotine with coffee (hey--it's still cheaper than cigarettes). I'm not much of a fashionista, but I will post fabulous finds. When it comes to purses, I'm a label whore. What can I say.

That's about it. Enjoy the blog.

Starting Over

I'm starting my blog over again. I changed the name so I could speak freely without my identity being exposed. Of course if you know me and are reading the blog, that's fine too and there's a picture of me right over there (----->) but I would like to keep some semblance of privacy. Just don't OUT me. People are nuts!
