Legal jargon makes me sleepy

I need a dictionary to understand it. I'm currently sitting in a layoff hearing; oh the joys of receiving a pink slip! We've been here since 9, and the lawyers haven't gotten through anything past citing evidence. Over 500 teachers are in this room, and the max is 299. Someone needs to call the fire marshall!!!

So I've done nothing but sit on my bum all day. I did get some grading done, and I started reading Water for Elephants.

It's pretty good so far! I'm also keepin myself awake with sour patch watermelons and m&m's. Not the healthiest, but it will have to do. Here's to hoping I don't have to come back tomorrow!!
