Philadelphia

My beloved mountains! I wish I had my real camerawith me to show the amazing moon & planet conjunction. So many stars!

Traveled to philly tonight, currently at Triumph Brewing Company on Chestnut enjoying a Bengal Gold IPA and listening to a jazz band. A got a Love Potion, too sweet for me. We ordered an insane amount food because A was worried the portions would be tiny. Ooops.

at the office

I got to the office today and stressed to jill and kelly who completely took over and organized my day. Thank you! So now I'm studying, cuddling with nisha, and listening to shane, jill, kelly and the roosters.

Kelly got her nails done with super cute pandas.

Snuggling with nisha

I got no studying done today between preparing to leave buffalo for a week, driving, and catching up with A's family (taxes, computers that need attention, dinner, planning a family reunion, congratulations). But I am getting high quality puppy snuggles; A's coonhound is behind me and Nisha is being my teddy bear. It was hard to leave today because I'm so worried that I've forgotten something essential to taking the exam. I'm more nervous about the trip than the exam on some levels... My truck is generally unhappy, hotels make me anxious, I don't sleep well any where but my own bed, I don't know philly well, just too many things to manage.

Okay, gonna do practice questions. And hopefully sleep.

Admitted

I traveled to Rochester for the admission ceremony today...

(e:kookcity2000) took me out to lunch at John's TexMex in the South Wedge and then he gave me a little tour. Thank you so much!! Gorgeous view from next to the big reservoir:

There was an overwhelming number of people in the room for the admission ceremony.

And there were all these people talking! The ceremony took about 45 minutes.

But now I'm a lawyer... officially an "Attorney and Counselor at Law" as you can see:

Back to studying.

1.5 estoppels

Partnership by estoppel - see corporation by estoppel.
Collateral estoppel. It's so boring i'm not bothering. You can google it.

So folks, I've got seven days left. I'm in a way better position than I was for the NYS bar exam but somehow I'm in a worse mental place, or at least it feels like it at the moment. The scoring is mysterious and the essays have more weight than they did in NYS... stress stress.

I'm asking you all to please write more posts and comments because they help me understand that this exam is not the only thing that exists in the world.

(e:springfaerie), I really hope Rhys is okay.

Tomorrow night, Mardi Gras.

Estoppels

Two more estoppels:

Paternity by estoppel Once you say you're the dad of the kid, you can't disclaim the kid even if blood tests say it isn't yours. But if biological dad steps in and says that he'll take responsibility for the kid, you're off the hook.

Corporation by estoppel if you're dealing with an entity that you believe is a corporation (which would have limited liability) and you find out that it was defectively formed or isn't a corporation at all, you can't assert that the owner is then personally liable. This is only true if the owner didn't know that the corporate formation was defective and was in good faith holding it out to be real.

No film noir

Our blinds aren't functional enough for the film noir setting (e:matthew) suggested.

Deflated lantern

Finally took a decent shot of (e:terry) for his QuickBooks ProAdvisor profile

Happy Valentine's Day!

I'm pretty anti-holiday in general but a certain person in my life loves holidays. These were waiting for me at the office this morning. Purple irises are my favorite flower. :-)
