Snuggling with nishaCategory: pets
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.

AdmittedCategory: school
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.

Congratulations, Isabelle! :-)
Yeah, and where is your über-formal attire snap? I need inspiration, you know?

1.5 estoppelsCategory: school
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.

Speaking of lobsters, Jen's girlfriend called her a lobster. Puzzled, I looked it up on urbandictionary. But Jen asked Lynn what she meant. Unlike urbandictionary, Lynn's response was "hard to catch and yummy to eat".

I wanted to call my first band "collateral estoppel" I loved the sound of "collateral estoppel" and it really didn't matter what it meant even though I knew it. But no one else liked it.
So I came up with "Lobsters Gorilla" in which Gorilla is a verb. If memory serves, the name was a play on a lyric from Frank Zappa about Chester's Gorilla.
fyi, even though I love seafood, lobster isn't one of my favies.
How's that for useless information.

EstoppelsCategory: school
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.
