Bar Application Submitted

I had to borrow ten dollars from Sara, find a public notary to notarize on two separate pages (I'm certain there is rampant fraud of people who just want to take the bar exam so badly that they are willing to steal identities in order to do it), go to the post office twice, have North Carolina send me my complete driving record, send requests to two separate offices at William and Mary, prepare five friends for the future harassment of bar officials seeking confirmation that I am a person who will not single-handedly wreck the integrity of the justice system, describe in detail everywhere I have lived in the past ten years, and photocopy the double sided sections (but ONLY the double sided sections!) of the application packet, but I have officially mailed in my application to take the bar exam in Maryland.

If I was a good boy and did absolutely everything right without forgetting to sign my name on page fifty-three or something like that, then I will be rewarded by the generous invitation to sit for two days taking an extended test that will cover nothing that I have actually learned in law school. If I pass that test, then around twelve weeks later I will be graciously allowed to join the illustrious ranks of a profession that, in the eyes of a vast majority of the public, is best known by its complete lack of integrity and general competence.

But I'm going to Disney World on Sunday, so today was a good day.
