Sarah’s bureaucratic problems were resolved, and I learned how to sound out the word bureaucratic before spelling it. Yesterday, I guessed and was mystified when I actually spelled it correctly; today, I mangled it so horribly that Word had no idea what I was trying to say and didn’t offer any suggestions (hence the ‘sounding out’ part).

In other news, I took a practice LSAT (law school admissions test) and scored in the 99th percentile. For those of you keeping track at home, that is very good, especially considering the fact that I hadn’t previously studied or attempted the test in any capacity. If I work hard, I might be able to score in the 98th percentile if I actually take it.
