oh crap

so basically, every day when i leave work, i think that i should go home and try to research some more on my current question, since i have not been able to find anything and i figure that researching in bed would really be better than researching at a desk anyways. but of course i don't. but now there is a 3 day weekend and i have been on this project for a day and have found nothing, but we were out of the office friday and then tomorrow too, so i feel that my tuesday i should have stuff and i don't and i'm in cville and even tho the library is closed, well i could still use lexis at home on this couch that i love so much and well, i have spent all day on it anyways. but not researching.

but none of that was the point. so i explain to my mom how badly this is all going and how i keep not being able to find anything on these questions to which it seems like there surely should be answers out there and some case precedent b/c they seem like questions that would come up pretty often. so my mom says that maybe there really aren't answers. and proceeds to list for me other people we know who are currently entangled in THE EXACT SAME LEGAL PREDICAMENT I HAVE JUST TOLD HER ABOUT! IT PROBABLY DOES NOT BODE WELL THAT MY MOTHER CAN LIST MULTIPLE FAMILY FRIENDS GOING THRU THIS SAME CASE RIGHT NOW AND I CANNOT FIND ANY CASE HISTORY FROM EITHER DC OR VIRGINIA IN THE LAST 150 YEARS!

so the question now confronting me--to deal with this now or to go to bed? hmmmm.
