I've had a busy and very fun week since I found out that I passed the bar exam. Friday night was unbelievably fun. We went to In the Raw for a fabulous dinner, then to Jewel, Brookside Bar and Another Round. It was pouring down rain, so I did get soaked, but it didn't make a difference. I could tell exactly when the alcohol started to take over as soon as I started going up to people and exclaiming, "I'm a Lawya!" Good times :)
Yesterday, I had my first experience at the Tulsa Zoo, and let me tell you, it smelled bad, but I cannot get enough of all those little animals. My favorites were the monkeys, the extremely fat frog and the sea lions.
Last night, I tried something out that I've always wanted to do. I went to a trivia night at Prive. It was so much fun. We had a huge group and even though we got 3rd place, we all had a blast, and fairly small bar tabs (apparently Prive is closing down, so it seems that they are practically giving away drinks). I dunno.
Today, I got a job. No, not a job as an attorney...but a job as a waitress AND bartender. I just went in for the serving job, but she asked me if I could start bartending Saturday and Sunday brunch and lunch. This will be perfect, because now I can take my time finding a law job and wait for a really great job. Plus, once I start working as a lawyer, I can still work a few shifts a week at the restaurant for extra money.
Another thing that happened today, was one of my attorney friends got appointed as the conflict attorney for our county, which means, whenever there is a conflict (usually for child abuse and domestic violence) between child and parent, he represents the child. AND he said he wants me to help him out, which means, I'll get experience in something I love, and again, make some more money until I figure out what it is that I'm going to do with this law degree.
Alright, well, I'm tired, I had a very long happy hour today and it's time to lay down.

Wow Shelby - all good things! That's really cool...
I do think it's kind of funny that you think you are going to have time/energy for "a few extra shifts" as a waitress in addition to working as a young attorney (don't they work you like 60hours a week or somethin'?) - well if anyone can pull that off it's you!

Now that I will no longer be working weekends I will come have a drink with you on Saturday afternoons. Can't wait until the game on Saturday. Even if it isn't a great game we will look cute it out TU get-up. It is college football day in the life of Megan.
