Employment Discrimination final today, blah, but over. And actually not that bad. The only true standards I can really have, my third time around doing this, is that I put enough genuine hard work in that I don't look back and feel like I deserve a bad grade, and anything beyond that just feels out of my control. Truly I've liked law school so much more this semester, so much more than I could have imagined six months ago, and I'm so happy just with that, it feels like enough. Grades, whatever.

Still, so tiring. This was my big memorization exam, and I always hate those, so it's good to have it over with. I don't have another scheduled exam until next Friday, though I'm doing my Con Law take-home on Sunday, but I felt totally justified in taking the rest of today OFF. After I cleaned of course - because I hadn't cleaned in almost a week and things were just a WRECK - which of course means I had to do a few dishes and vacuum, because to let things get any messier goes against the laws of my nature, even during finals. Then I slept for two hours and woke up with a migraine, but it was the first one in almost three weeks and really, every single trigger I have was working against me. Multiple reruns of America's Next Top Model and it's mostly gone; I'm not even going to bother defending my addiction to that show because really, there is just no excuse for it.

But a new episode of my dear beloved Everwood and oh, the squee! of it. Bright is so my seekrit boyfriend; the scene with him reading Our Bodies Ourselves just made my year. And the rest of it was just so, so, wow, I love this show. I can't believe I was once embarassed to admit I watched it. Now I just feel vague pity for anyone who doesn't watch it, the poor deprived things.

It feels utterly disloyal to say this but I might like the Colbert Report even more than the Daily Show. It's The Word, I think. And Stephen Colbert's dorky ears.

Three inches of snow are supposed to fall tonight. Which means, of course, that greater Philadelphia is just *bracing* itself for the dire onslaught. Villanova already preemptively postponed tomorrow's exams by two hours. Subject to further change, in case the apocalypse arrives. Like, in the form of *five* whole inches of snow.

I LOVE America's Next Top Model. I love it so much that I've even watched the Tyra Banks Show a few times. It's like when you're craving something chocolate and you don't have any in the house, so you eat whatever the hell else is around. ANTM is like the Godiva truffle I really want, and the Tyra Banks show is the Cheerios I eat instead.

I love The Word! It's brillant! I don't think Stephen Colbert is better than John Stewart, but The Word is amazing and now that the "reporting at the scene" stuff with the other actors I don't know isn't as good as it used to be, so I totally understand what you mean about maybe liking The Colbert Report better. And who doesn't just love a show with Fracts and Gravitas!
