@Wildfire: Thankfully I finished school a few months ago, and then took the bar at the end of July. The exams are just to be certified with the state, and then [ideally] you would work with a firm in a discipline you were interested in.
@jupiter: Gotcha. So this is another step to get a job, basically XD Do you know what you want to focus on?
@Wildfire: Sort of, yes, hahaha. I could get a job now, but it's kind of like trying to use the trial version of something for a big project; I can do some basic functions, but the essentials of being a lawyer (i.e., giving advice) are off limits until the state gives me the green light.
I'm not entirely sure, but I tend to gravitate more towards transactional things--contracts, corporate law, things that are considered more tedious and unglamorous. I have never had an interest in being in a courtroom, and there's no chance in hell that I'd be caught doing family law; it's so messy!

@jupiter: I offered to be a soundboard since their problems are relatable and I no longer have those problems. But you are correct. <3 I got in over my head. I have a couple living with us and they struggled like my husband and I used to. I made it clear I won't provide advice unless they ask. Their venting needed advice the other night and it was uncalled for. <.< which pissed of one and the other got angry about it. holy cow. yessum. I'm stepping back and centering myself before I spend time with them again.
My lady roommate is texting me today, just casual conversation- it's a hint that she's not angry anymore and might be a sign she doesn't want me stepping back too far.
I gotta do what's best for me for a bit.
@Wildfire: Thank you for the luck. <3 I'll need it.
I'm off to the park with my kids, so I'm disappearing.

@jupiter: Gotcha. So it's more of a final step before you can "really" practice. :3 I don't blame you for not wanting to do family law - all the drama would be... a lot!! There's nothing wrong with going in to an "unglamorous" specialty! As long as you enjoy what you're doing (and contributing to the benefit of humanity), it's all good :3
@Koah: Have fun at the park!

@Totalanimefan: Hey Total - aren't you just rainbow-rific?! <3
I'm doing ok, thanks. How are you? What have you been up to lately?

Good morning everyone. I hope that whatever the specifics are, that you have a good day today!
I got woke up at about one something this morning by Sad Dog being creepy. Started to feel pressure on my bed, like when someone is climbing into the bed with you. Startled awake to see Sad Dog slowly sneaking up to me for cuddles.
Awwww... that's cute when they do that! I'm sorry it woke you up, though. How are you doing today?
Our dog does that too - he'll just sit at the side of the bed as we're settling in, staring at us with those big sad eyes of his. And at some point he'll just up and settle himself- usually right between us! XD

It was so cute. But for a minute it was scary, since I was like half awake when he did it.
@Totalanimefan: I'm mildly sick lol.
@Another Movie Addict: Yeah, I get that. You're half awake, but you feel the eyes watching you... feel the dog stalking you in the dark! XD
@Totalanimefan: Oh! Ouch! The situation with the house isn't good! I'm glad you could get it fixed :3 That sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. Did you know about this when you bought the house, or was it a surprise?

Exactly. But I gave him hugs and pets until I fell back to sleep.
@Totalanimefan: >w> I caught covid.
@Totalanimefan: Not sure when I was infected, but I started showing symptoms last Tuesday. It came into my house via my mom. Her coworker had it and kept coming to work without telling anyone.
@Totalanimefan: Yeah. Mostly now it's just sinus drainage.
@Another Movie Addict: It sounds like it was a good experience for both of you ... once you got over the "creepy dog" phase of things! XD
@Totalanimefan: How did the House Inspector not find that when he was doing the inspection? That seems like quite the oversight!

@Wildfire: Lol yeah. He's such a goofy dog.
