Beginning 2012
There are several things that will be very different this year. I've listed them below, for easy reference later on, should I need to check back to see how valid my predictions were. 1. Our eldest daughter will be headed to college this fall. While we are not positive where she'll be going yet, we …
Top 3 Goals for 2012
My top three things to accomplish this year: 1. Find a clerkship or other legal work opportunity to do while still keeping my day job long enough to no longer need the money. In lieu of this, I would be okay with volunteer work for Legal Aid or other such entity, or even doing legal …
If I Had Six Months to Kill
If I could take a six-month break from work or school, I'd want to take a six-month break from both, honestly. I go to school during the evening hours and work during the day, so right now, other than times when we are out of school for holidays and such, I get no breaks at …
My Farthest Friend
My friend who lives farthest away is my long-time Japanese pen pal, Asako. I've known her since I was in the seventh grade, so it's been 27 years this year. That seems like a really long time! We met because my 7th grade English teacher, Ms. Burge, made us get pen pals as part of …
The Secret Oath (and handshake apparently)
So about two years ago, a family member sent me an email entitled, "The Lawyer's Secret Oath". I was in law school at the time, and I just took it and read it, basically because I've gotten used to the lawyer jokes, snide remarks, and other degrading and derogatory comments about my chosen path of …
Welcome, Alfred!
Well, today we are setting up our new computer. We've decided to name him Alfred. We name our devices, mainly because we have several, but also because it's so much more fun to personalize them than to just call them Computer 1, etc. That's boring.Right now, we have Prudence, my laptop, Olivia, my Kindle Touch, …
So muchh for blogging every day
Yeah, I know. I was going to blog every day. Between this blog and one I have to write weekly for work, it's just hard to get it done and still enjoy my time off from school. Every night when I come home, I just enjot being home without a care in the world. I …
The Lies They Tell Teens
So, I've made a pact with myself to blog every day of 2012. I can't say that they will all be funny or anything, as I'm not always a funny person. See previous blogs for evidence of non-funniness. But, they will be about things that bother, interest, disturb, or amuse me. Today's Topic: The lies they …
2012: Better than 2011, Let’s Hope So
My thoughts on this New Year's Day: that 2012 is better than 2011. No, 2011 wasn't the worst year ever, but it did have some rather awful parts. The month of hell, the economy, the fact that I put $9K into my 403b only to have the balance rise $1500 for the whole year, and …
