In no particular order, these are the behavioral traits that I am starting to exhibit:
- A strong urge to work "Id." into my daily conversational lexicon. Upon deeper thought and a second Red Bull, realize that working the italics into the conversation may be harder than it looks.
- There is the growing desire to start citing everything. (See Generally thenambypamby, statements to the world, et. al. 3/2/06 et. seq.) Though, I am sure that this would get tedious after a while and I might just throw some tabasco on the Bluebook and have a snack.
- I continually ponder if it would be a good idea to create pet names for the various Senators that I reference in my brief. Though I think the professor might be a tad put off if I start using 'Numbskull Redneck Motherfucker,' 'ShitforBrains,' and 'Hawkeye' in discussing policy. Come to think of it, I probably shouldn't even be using Senators from the West Wing and their various floor speeches...
