I demand a recount

Tonight my partner and I were edged out of moot court competition in the quarterfinals. I can take losing, but losing by 8 points, 429-421, on a 525 point scale is a little hard to stomach. We weren't supposed to see the final tallies but my partner caught a glimpse and there was no way she was going to suffer with that knowledge herself.

If only I hadn't coughed after Judge C asked me about whatever. If only I had stood a centimeter taller. If only...

Well, at least I don't have to fret about it for the next two days. Now I can worry about next Tuesday full time.

I got three Amendment 3 flyers today, but I've still not received any Fortenmail.

Did you leave that pumpkin on our front steps?

What color was your suit? Maybe that was the difference.

Dark gray. It's the only suit I own so my only other option was to show up in a loin cloth and Hawaiian shirt.

Hmm... perhaps you made the right choice.
