On Tuesday I got admitted pro hac vice to the American Samoa Bar Association. They still haven't processed my application, but pro hac vice is like a temporary pass to practice until it finally gets approved. The lawyer that was doing District Court had been practicing pro hac vice since December. They got around to processing her application and found that her license is suspended in California, so they barred her from practicing here for now. Her license just got suspended because she forgot to pay her bar fees. But anyway, that was Tuesday so since then I've been handling District Court and trying to get organized at work. The files are in sort of a state of disarray, so I've been kind of trying to get things straight while I haven't been in court. That's been difficult because there isn't anyone who knows where all the files are and what is going to be coming up at court. That's really neat just sitting there waiting for something that we should have done that didn't get done. After a week or two it'll be figured out though so I'll know what is coming.

My stuff getting here is great. But, it's meant that I've stayed up late each night trying to set things up and organize stuff. So I'm exhausted from court and work. I haven't really even had time to check my email. I'm going to try to get out a little early on Friday and go golfing. $3 for 9 holes I think. Before that I have court which will probably last from 830 til hopefully not later than 130, but we'll see.

Here are some pictures of my living room with at least some stuff in it. Also, the dog that lives here, my tiki torches and yard, and me drenched in sweat from cleaning.

I spent another 1.5 hours working on the excercise machine tonight. This should have had a warning on the box that says something like: NOTICE, this will be the hardest thing you ever do. My total time spent assembling this is almost surely going to exceed 6 hours. That is too long.

Movie review- Man of the Year: 5

I was going to go to Aunu'u (which is a little island off this island) this Saturday, but the weather is supposed to be kind of crappy and right now I'm worn out, so I think I might just hang out Saturday and go to Aunu'u a different day when it is nicer out. It isn't like it is terrible weather, but it has been really cloudy the past few days. The main reason I'm not going to go is that the group is leaving at 8am Saturday and I really hope to not be awake by that time and could use the sleep.

Thanks to my parents, KC, and Jaymie for the Husky score updates. 5 in a row to the Cougs. Yuk!
Now I'm confident that we'll make the tournament, it is just that it is the NIT.

Meg and Adrian are coming out here April 26-May 3 in case anyone else wants to come out at that time.
