Feeling better

Sometimes things amaze me. One of those things is the fact that I have a computer on my lap right now. A computer that 20 years ago would have filled a room. And it's not plugged into anything. Not plugged into the wall, not plugged into a phoneline or a coaxial line, or a T1 line. Nothing at all. And yet, I have access to a vast array of information from around the world, and am able to publish this post, which anyone connected to the internet can read. It's crazy.

I've been a little depressed this week. Not sure why. Some of it might be thinking about Corey. Some of it might be job stuff. Some of it is just . . . I don't know. Maybe I'm just tired. I'm just glad that this weekend is here. I needed the rest.

The Olympics is almost over, and that will be a bit of a relief. I'll be able to concentrate a little better on school.

Jess's friend Anne is visiting us. She's pretty nice, and we have quite a bit in common, so it's tough sometimes because either she can talk to Jess about things they have in common, or to me about stuff we have in common, but there isn't too much overlap there. I'm doing my best to give them some room because Jess doesn't get to see Anne too much anymore.

I'm really looking forward to Conviction. I got a sneak peak of the pilot episode on iTunes. It was pretty cool watching it on my way home from school the other day. It starts next friday, and looks really good. Mostly I'm excited because I want to be a prosecutor and the show is about prosecutors. I feel like I've said this before . . .

I'm really excited about the coming week. I got an interview with Strike, Goodwin O'Brien, and that really makes me excited. It's a criminal defense firm that is my top choice for jobs this summer. That is, if I get it. I'm so nervous/excited for this interview. I know I said I wanted to be a prosecutor, but working with a criminal defense firm would give me invaluable experience. Pray for me people.

I'm also excited, however less so, because Wednesday is Comic book day and Infinite Crisis #5 is coming out and and Justice #4 is being kept in my folder to be picked up. Just two of several comics I've been reading. Another really cool one is a series X-Men: Appocolypse vs. Dracula. I just picked up the first of four last week. It combines two of my favorite fictional characters/villains. You should pick it up.
