Monday: Mock Trial 3 hour rehearsal and then NHS awards ceremony (which I had to attend of course because I am VP and had to sit in front of everyone).
Tuesday: Mock Trial competition at the LA county courthouse. Not too bad because I wasn't on but I did have to be clerk which I actually find more stressful than my actual role. Guess what? We won this competition and became 1 of 8 teams left in the countywide competition.
Wednesday: Yet another long Mock trial rehearsal (See any patterns?). Got home at a reasonable hour but then spent about 4 or 5 making a massive Chaucer study guide.
Thursday: Mock Trial competition #2 of the week. This time, I'm in it. The competition started out with 70 teams and after this round only 4 are left...and we're one of them! Semi-finals are next Tuesday and I'm up again!
Friday: Mock Trial practice and then FINALLY some relaxation (West Wing) time. Just me and Rob and the livins good!
[End itinerary]
Part of me wishes I had big plans for the weekend, but I'm also just glad to be able to slow down. I want to just eat sugar and coffee and lie around for 48 hours. Wouldn't that be grrreat?! Next week is Thanksgiving (THANK THE LAWD!), which is a much needed break. I have about a bajillion things to do over this "break," but hey, it's something. I won't be happy until it's officially Christmastime though. My excitement is immeasurable. The one regret about the Christmas season is that it goes by too quickly and New Years is never good. But who's here to complain? Not me, that's for sure! This is less uh...transparent...than my posts for the rest of this past week, but garbage nonetheless. I promise to get the creative juices flowing tomorrow when I'm well rested!
