Death and Taxes
Some things in life are certain.
If it's two weeks away from finals, I'll inevitably be doing the following:
a) Procrastinating via the joy of the innernets (via kottke.org). Seriously, The. Joy. I laughed as much as the baby did. Kan man ha roligare???
b) Procrastinating via holiday present planning, thank you Gloria! "In this era of the rejected, maligned fruitcake, few holiday traditions remain that successfully unite the kitchen, gift giving and hard alcohol."
c) Thinking, I can totally learn Professional Responsibility in 11 days, right? I mean, just don't sleep with your clients and you're cool, right? (WRONG. You can TOTALLY sleep with your clients, AWESOME! (well, under certain limited circumstances that I can't explain to you because I haven't done ANY reading for that class, double AWESOME!))
In conclusion: Sleeping with clients? Maybe. Death, taxes, and staring into the maw of academic failure? For certain.

HEY, I never received the LAST mix.
Procrastination is in FULL force here, and ultimately, I don't even have that much to work on. I just don't want to do any of it, and want to buy furniture.

Ok, learning the circumstances under which you may sleep with your clients is CRUCIAL INFORMATION! Study up!

Jen,
Hey, did lawscool in Colorado - seriously, ignore your crazy ethics prof and get the emmanuels, or better yet, barbrie info, it's SO EASY you will kick that test's butt. Prof's just make it confusing.
GOOD LUCK!

Amen sista! that whole maw of academic failure is a bit nasty sounding. I'm not looking forward to it. When I get there, maybe I'll spruce it up a bit and make the people serve drinks at the door.

I see how you were able to procrastinate with the baby. And flavored vodkas? Yum.
Good luck with ethics!

I can sleep with my clients? Score! I should have paid more attention in PR!
