I stopped linking to my LSN a while back, as I think more random people read LSD than do troll through LSN.  I think it'll be pretty much impossible to hide my identity from any surfing adcomms, as how many 40-something Maine Indians apply to law school every year (actually, according to the current LSN, I'm the only person, of any flavor, from Maine applying this cycle.)

BTW, IrxXy, thanks for the feedback - I think we'll head up to Ithaca later this weekend.
I'm in a lynch mob?  I had no idea.  This is really worrying; I really don't have time for another extra-curricular activity.

Morning, IrrXy!  It's around 8:30am here in Pittsburgh, and we're still waffling over whether to go to Ithaca or not - mostly in light of the expected surge in gas prices later this week.   Arg!  And now some models forecast Hanna to roll up the East Coast later this week, which could make our other plan, of heading straight to DC, equally painful (though in a different way.)  Double arg!

That's cool how you referenced a case.

It took me three months to get my letters. And I had to ask for six to get four.

Failure to provide a letter after an agreement is down right irresponsbile.  I was going to get a third guy to write me one with the idea that one prof may be horribley late.


i finally got my letters for my judicial clerkship apps......this might be the week.....apps are released sep 3, judges can contact applicants on sep 5, most judges are doing interviews week of sep 11.....if i dont get a call on friday, or at least by monday, i suspect my hopes will be dashed  :P

honestly, i'm not expecting to get any interviews, i mean, i dont think i have much to offer them since i'm not in top 5% or have law review

Well, one was totally excusable. He's a friend and former supervisor who had a stroke. He did mention that he needed to write a letter for me each time I visited him in the hospital. I told him not to worry about it. The other was a former instructor and lawyer with the AZ AG's office. I was pretty disappointed that letter didn't materialize. But the ones I got were pretty good and from some people in very good standing in the legal community or ranked highly in my company, so overall it wasn't a big loss.

Tasha, from the number of people who have talked to you about this clerkship, I'd be surprised if you didn't get the job, and will be seriously pissed if you don't even get a call.

i wouldnt be shocked not to get a call.  kinda par for the course, ya know

And I'm not surprised that you're making that assessment. I know where it's coming from, and all I can say is that it's a part of your brain I don't trust very much. :P


lol the voices in my head are especially loud today  :D

You may be right. But I'm not going to believe it until it's done, because believe it or not, you're better than you give yourself credit for and others have already seen that.


its sweet of you to say that  :-*

I agree with IrrX in the earlier convo.  I would also be shocked if you didn't get a call.
