I worked late today. I was there almost by myself until 10:00 pm in the office. By then I think almost all the attorneys have left, except for some occasional foodsteps down the hall, but that may just be the custodians.
I feel very hard-working, being one of the last people to leave the office. :) I'm sure I won't feel the same after a few more nights of this.
I got new research assignments today, every bit as frustrating as the ones from yesterday. But I was more patient and expected more difficulty, and perhaps I AM improving in my research skills. I actually know how to write an actual Westlaw command now. Well, in any case, I was determined to find at least ONE relevant case, and finally, after like 8 hours of research today, I did find some authority. Yoo-hoo.
The case I'm working on goes to trial tomorrow. Actually it's jury selection, and then it will be trial time. All the interns are invited to go and watch. I'm kinda excited about that.
All the summer interns are getting closer with each other. All the guys in my group have very good personalities: stable, calm, outgoing, funny, etc. I really like this girl from an large state university law school, who is my age and very stable and elegant and quiet and self-assured. Another girl is extremely outgoing (perhaps too outgoing?) but has a good sense of humor as well.
Have also been chatting online a bit with friend Dickie over Gmail chat, which is the greatest invention ever. Hopefully, though, my employer is not monitoring my online usage since there's some embarrassing personal details being disclosed. :)
:D finally finding a relevant case after hours of reading irrelevant ones.
:) sprained my neck this morning somehow and it still feels weird 10 hours later.
