Since I couldn't stop reading until the end of part 1, they might give you some idea about how I feel about the book so far

Caught up, and thanks for reading that memory about the summer boss from 1981 remebering me all those years later.

I've wondered if part of it was that I was so happy and willing to work all hours that summer, and at 21 and eager to apply what I'd learned in law school first year to real life, had the stamina and also really wanted to grab as much learning as I could, and grabbed any case that sounded interesting. Then once I had it assigned, short shrift on any, or trying to back out, wasn't an option.  That was at 21 for three months.  I've wondered if I could ever have kept those hours at a full-time year-round job there! But there were enough cases where we had to defend the "wrong side" at times, and I saw that as a drawback in law firm practice. 

(Obviously, vixmom in her job now does those hours, and maybe then some.  :)  )


I can see how defending the wrong side at times would be morally difficult.

I don't know that I would include Ella Fitzgerald on that list, except for her talents. She was truly one of the humble people I've ever met, bubbly and glad to be performing. No attitude whatsoever.

I agree with your opinion of Ella Fitzgerald.

I, also, ate far too many Cherry Jelly Bellies today.

I, also, bought myself a bag of Sunkist tropical fruit Jelly Bellies, but I have resisted the urge to open them.

They are enhanced with additional vitamin C.  Yeah, right.

Rehearsal vibes for DR GEORGE....I am hoping I am in the same boat this time next week.....again at last!

Thanks, Jrand!  We're still just learning music.  Sunday we start some blocking.  And Break Legs to you!!

Very long, exhausting day at work. But also a good day.

USAA was named the No. 7 company in the U.S. for customer experience. Wegmans was No. 1, and our local H-E-B grocery was No. 2.

USAA credit cards, which is an area I work with, was voted No. 1 for customer experience. So was our insurance branch, which I only occasionally deal with. All from the Temkin Group.

Congrats, John!
