Jake’s Life

Just finished some major projects for my classes, both Criminal Law and Criminal Investigation. A while back I had most of my assignments posted on this site, but was doing so many of them I slacked off on posting them. Let’s put that on the potential to-do list for now. I’m doing pretty well in school right now, which is surprising because of how much time I am actually able to devote to it.

I’m enjoying my weekend so far…it started today and ends tomorrow, with last week being 6 days and next week being the same. Not coincidentally, I have noticed things that make me think I’m spending too much time at work:

• I have begun to view alley lights as an actual form of communication, complete with tone, inflection, and attitude.
• I know why the right side of my shirt is constantly coming untucked.
• If I’m face to face with someone and didn’t quite catch something they said, I’ll ask them to 10-9. I will also tell people “affirm,” “stand by,” “received,” and “baker sam.”
• I will type one handed while watching TV.
• I get out of a car and begin to reach for something on my belt that isn’t there.

The list just keeps growing every night I work.

The search for a new apartment has begun. The roommates are not planning on staying here when our lease expires August 1, so it leaves melooking for a new place. No big deal, I just don’t like to ush around at the last minute. The new place is definitely going to be with roommate(s), and hopefully closer to work. Stability too, not, “Oh we plan to be here for a while,” then they book it.
