skipped class today. ask my why? well, i was in corpus christi today, watching attorney's from "v's" law firm in action. they were great! from what i can remember (fell asleep a couple of times) they pretty much had it under control. one of the attorney's even got angry and raised his voice. great strategy because it woke me up. i won't go into details about the case because i'm not sure if i'm supposed the talk about it without written notification or some stuff like that, but i will tell you that it was a 50/50 win for the law firm. they won the case, but only got a little of what they wanted. i guess it's what they call a bitter-sweet victory. in any case, it was interesting to watch "v's" interest spike during closing arguments. she listen so intently, that i was stressed just by watching her facial expressions. just one of those things.

got a free lunch out of the trip. drove down in the xterra so "v" could bring back boxes with very important and restricted information (makes me sound important). "v" a co-worker and i drove up the coast (can it really be called that, i wonder) and back again. i saw the u.s.s. lexington for the first time. never been that close to an aircraft carrier before. especially one that saw action in world war two. not even that, this lexington isn't the original. the original (cv-2) was scuttled by the navy and the workers on the new ship petitioned for this one (cv-16) to take it's name. pretty cool.

all-in-all, it was an interesting day. drove to corpus and drove home again. witnessed law at work and fell asleep, to boot. had free lunch and beautiful company. what more to say than thanks for the memories.
