So, It's Monday

...and I owe you a post, so in between writing emails to opposing counsel and researching new laptops, let me tell you about my day.

Aside:  When I went shopping with pseudo-niece last week, I opened the doors for her to go in first.  This is important only because it meant that the shopkeepers saw a teenaged girl enter their stores, and the disappointment on their faces were clearly visible.  Until I walked in, looking to the world like her mother.

Aside aside:  Sweet holy evil!  I am legitimately old enough to be her mother.  This seriously skeeves me out.

Back to the initial aside:  The relief on the shopkeepers' faces was amazing to watch when I entered the stores.  Like, "Here's the money lady!"  I guess I never noticed when I was a teenager that the clerks were never happy to see me alone or with friends.

Anyhoo:  I'm thinking about what opposing counsel's going to say to my client's requests.  I'm thinking about how fun it will be to have a new laptop, and what a royal pain it will be to transfer data from TWO machines to the new one.  I'm thinking that maybe Momma will buy me an external hard drive to make this easier and faster.  I'm thinking about a wireless router so I can be online while I watch TV.

I'm thinking I need to take a shower and take the garbage out.  Yes, another day in the life of a high-powered attorney.
