jesus christ
so I thought that law school and the subsequent soul crushing void of unemployment and no job prospects had voided me of my ability to feel things but i go down to the mailbox today and there's a letter from the board of bar examiners. i was literally shaking as i tried to open the envelope and unfold it and it turns out i passed and i literally said "oh thank god" out loud even though i was alone and my heart is still pounding and i'm still kind of shaking and the tunnel vision is only just now starting to fade and i think i'm going to go have a lie down for a while but oh thank god i passed that fucking thing, i did not want to do it again
i thought this moment wouldn't be particularly exciting because, you know, you have to have a job to be a lawyer but nope that was pretty fucking tense whoooooo phewww |

Re: jesus christ
Quite a day.
Bob passed the bar and (thanks to my wife's seven layer bean dip) I passed a lot of gas. Congrats to you, sir. I would also like to add that I think I am officially Bob's biggest internet fan. I was the first to reply to this and to his facebook update. |

Re: jesus christ
She should be swooning when you tell her you're offically certified to practice law now.
Congrats man. That's awesome

Re: jesus christ
Congratulations bob! I would be doing cartwheels, you must be pumped.
So yeah, you could be out on your second date and lets say you walk by some watering hole nonchalantly you can stop and say "Hey we just passed a bar, BTW baby.... You're gonna get lucky

Re: jesus christ
me too. i'm going to have to drink a ton more to make it "special occasion" drinking rather than "it's a day that ends in y and it's dark out" drinking
hahaha. i might do that. i probably won't say "baby" though |

Re: jesus christ
god i keep reading the letter to make sure i haven't screwed it up somehow but nope i've definitely passed. i mean overall i wasn't immensely worried that i'd failed, because i studied hard (though i didn't take the $2,750 review course, a wise decision in retrospect), there's a 80-90% pass rate, i was in the zone for the exam and i've generally been pretty damn good at standardized tests but you know still, walking down to the mailbox and seeing that board of bar examiners return address, shit, at that moment it felt like i had a 50/50 chance of passing and it literally felt like my heart was made of diarrhea, i really don't know how else to describe it, i did not want to take that test again
figured a certain way this is a kind of hollow victory because to be totally honest i'm basically in exactly the same position i was in before i learned i'd passed in terms of my chances of getting a job but fuck that, i'm putting my cynicism aside for like at least a week and i'm determined to be thrilled about this boy i'm drunk and posting on the internet at 3:30 A.M. again. |

Re: jesus christ
Congrats - but go to bed.
On your date: When she goes to pay her part of the bill you could shout "I OBJECT" really loud to let everyone know you're a real lawyer. Then buy the house a round of drinks while lighting a cigar with a $20 bill so you can feel like the big shot you are |

Re: jesus christ
holler back son.
you dont want to come out with this information on the date, or it seems like your bragging. let her bring it out of you, like the old ooo anything new in your life type of question. then your like blah blah blah. then shell be all very impressed and thinking about getting seeded up. in which case you dump her and go find someone hotter. |

Re: jesus christ
well in bob
i'm sure she'll be very pleased with your news.dont big it up too much though, just casually drop it in. like maybe mention it in a list of things you have done this week. went shopping, bought a book, passed the bar. glad things are on the up for you dude.

Re: jesus christ
i actually had a whole big spiel planned about how i cleaned my room but now it feels slightly unimportant
|
#26

Re: jesus christ
though maybe that's for the better because to be 100% honest the only reason i cleaned my room was because of the off chance that i'd be doing her in it tomorrow. obviously i'm not planning on it but you know, it's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it
i'm beginning to wish i hadn't posted about this girl because i can bloody guarantee there's been less attention paid to these dates on her end than on mine, not that i meant to make a big thing of it in the first place (though i'm not sure what i thought would happen) |

Many congratulations, Bob. Maybe this is the sign that things are really going to come together for you. Just you watch, everything is just going to fall into place.
