Running toward law school

I've been using the early mornings before starting work to contemplate law school and lawyership. Also the exploitation of parantheses.

Most days (lately, anyway) I paint (oils, on canvas) for at least an hour while listening to the BBC (this is 3 am in my time zone). Then I go for a run in the dark (4.15 am. ish.) The act of making art wakes up my intellect (the cup of coffee I drink while painting doesn't hurt) and a good run clarifies my thoughts. I'm trying to memorize some Latin phrases (Lex loci, nihil dicit, habeas corpus, et cetera) and trying to really understand basic concepts like due process and tort law (also habeas corpus).

I'm still working on 'due process.' I'll keep you updated.
