I Am Sort of the Worst
Yeah, I haven't been posting. I think at one point I said I wasn't going to apologize for not posting, because that sort of assumes that anyone cares, and I realized long ago I was never going to have the fervent readership of a Dan Brown or a Kim Kardashian-West. But I do want to at least acknowledge that I've kind of been the worst lately, just for the record.
The truth is that I've had other stuff going on! Work has been quite busy, and in fact I just got back from a work trip to magical El Paso. (If you are thinking about going to El Paso, late June is definitely the best time.) This trip had the added side benefit of leaving me stranded in Dallas for an extra night, after which I basically had to promise to do weird sex stuff just to get a flight back to Chicago with a layover in Dayton. (If you are thinking about doing weird sex stuff, Dayton is definitely the best place.) But I did get back, and I am alive.
What else has filled the last four weeks or so? A lot of booking of conference rooms, if you're into that. A great deal of getting weirdly excited about finding cases that are good for my client's position on Westlaw. And a dash of screaming at the IT helpline when Citrix crashes and dumps three hours of work. What can I say? It's a living.
