About Delinda

Graduation. Bar Exam. Wedding. Like a coming of age novel, but better.

Just when I felt life couldn’t get any worse.
 I broke my nose.
Yup. You read correctly. I broke my nose.
The stress of the upcoming results has weighed on me so heavily this week. I felt a good workout would mellow me out a bit. Thus, Wednesday afternoon, Josh and I packed up our surfboards and headed […]

Burma

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

The aftermath of the Burma cyclone is heart breaking. How a government can deny its own citizens assistance in recovering from a natural disaster is incredible. Last night, I read an entry on Anderson Cooper’s blog and I found myself choked up. What a dire situation.

Ugh, Laundry.

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

Gawd, I hate doing laundry. I know my feelings about laundry are shared as Ehlan has also lamented about this tedious chore. And Liz definitely understands the pain involved as she generously washed 7 loads of Cory’s laundry as part of his birthday present:

Wash. Dry. Fold. Wash. Dry. Fold. I know, really, how hard can […]

My mother is not my only blog reader

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

…and this is something that I have come aware of during my five week blog writing sabbatical.
This post is to confirm, that yes, I am alive.
And, I have a ton of things to share, but I need to find the time to sit down and write. Please bear with me until April 15th. […]

Laundry

Wednesday, February 13th, 2008

I hate doing laundry. Hate it. Josh hates it too. And unfortunately for him, I’ve recently been pulling the “I’m-too- tired/busy-to-do-laundry-card” and so the chore has fallen into his lap.
Yesterday, he announced he was going to conquer the Mount Everest pile of dirty laundry that has accumulated on our bedroom floor over the past two weeks. […]

Two weeks to go…

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

Only two more weeks to go and I’ll be halfway through the morning session on Day 1 of the exam.
 Throughout these past few months I have constantly found myself making comparisons between my current situation and my pre-July bar prep situation. Most of these comparisons have been futile, if not entirely pointless, since my current […]

Georgia O’Keefe

Sunday, February 10th, 2008

I hate paying full-price for wall calendars. Growing up, I always had a Surfrider calendar, a Christmas gift from my brother that was received like clock-work every December. Then the year I started law school, he gave me a Starbucks gift card and that is what I’ve received just about every year since then. (Somehow […]

I can’t believe it

Thursday, January 31st, 2008

a) Two posts in one day, both before noon.
b) My very first gray hair. Shooting right out of the top of my head like a fairy tale beanstalk.
Under the energy-friendly bathroom  lights, it shone like justice. After eight failed attempts, I yanked it out and left the innocent bystanders scattered on the counter.   I ran […]

Breakfast Sandwich Delicious-ness

Thursday, January 31st, 2008

Gawd, I love breakfast sandwiches.
This isn’t a new obsession, but it is one that is constantly repressed due to the high fat/calorie intake that a breakfast sandwich brings to the table. And lately, I’ve been doing a poor job of suppressing the urge. I’ve been qualifying my breakfast sandwich consumption by blaming it on the February […]

Rainy Days

Monday, January 28th, 2008

Sometimes Josh and I talk about places we would like to live, if we did not live in Southern California. For the longest time, at the top of that list has been Seattle, followed by San Francisco as a close runner-up. A few things hold us back including but not limited to the fact that both of […]
