Holy hand grenade! I've been very busy.

So, re: The State of Me. I've started an externship with a local general practice law office and while it's only supposed to be 20 hrs a week I feel like it's taking up all of my time, probably because it is. My boss is all "here, take these files home and read them in your spare time" and in my head I'm all "Excuse me?" and yet I end up reading them in my spare time. For example, last weekend during a hiyacynth-and-family visit. I just, you guys, I don't know what's wrong with me.

BUT, in other news, today, while I was driving home from the library (I have to do all of my research there, it's annoying) I witnessed a hit-and-run traffic accident. I was stopped at a red light when this car came up from behind and flew past me (in the oncoming lane), almost hit another car in the intersection and succeeded in hitting a stopped car. It pealed past and then stopped a couple yards up and waited there while my light turned green. Instead of going back and doing the right thing it blithely continued on its way. However, I came up behind it, took down the license plate number, and turned around and gave it to they guy who'd been hit. I got an actual round of applause from another person who'd stopped to let the guy use her cellphone to call the police.

So that was exciting. I feel all good-citizen-y and stuff. And now if I can only find some good fanfic my day will be complete.
