To celebrate I got my hair cut and colored, splurged on produce at Whole Foods, and bought some salad dressing containers and ramekins (because I want to make the Babbo Maple Crema recipe) at Bed Bath & Beyond. And then I realized that I am completely boring. After that, I gathered together my old textbooks to sell, replaced the battery in the smoke alarm, straightened the kitchen, and twiddled my thumbs.
The first week of law school, Zach took a picture of me with four cans of Diet Coke, a stack of books, my shiny new laptop, and some flowers he bought to celebrate new beginnings. Today I drank 64 oz of diet coke, sold the last of the books in the pictured stack of books, and threw away some dried flowers that Zach bought me as a consolation when I didn't get the clerkship I wanted. My laptop is worn on the corners, the "A" and "N" keys are almost completely worn off and the spacebar sticks.
