Without further delay, I present to you the numerical assessment of my river trip:
Number of hours spent in car ride to and from river: 16
Percentage of those hours my poor husband spent listening to me explain federal
subject matter jurisdiction: 25% (I think he wins an award for that.)
Number people on the trip: 20
Percentage of my siblings who came along: 100%
Number of times my boat capsized accidently: 1

Number of nights spent on the river: 2
Number of mornings in which my morning coffee was heavily flavored with Bailey's Irish Cream: 2
Number of spots that I have poison oak: 4
Percentage of those spots which don't normally see the light of day: 75%
Number of hours spent sober: I don't remember, which is probably a bad sign.
Number of river-rafting golden retrievers on our trip: 1
Number of river-rafting golden retrievers our golden retriever met, causing intense golden retriever happiness and dance: 1
Number of waterfalls we swam in: 1
Number of times solicitous brother carried inebriated sister on a hike from a waterfall: 1
Number of law books I brought on the river: 0 (yeah!)
Number of cases I told people about: 1 (really! I was able to keep it to the shipwreck/cannibalism case I mentioned below. It seemed topical.)
And finally, number of people who asked me about my tan in class this morning: 4
