Thanks, everyone. I always feel so lucky to have you guys.
I think in my case, the issue is that I don't want to work in Denver long term. It's 70 miles from my house and I'm now doing that every day. So I have to figure out if I stay here a whlie to gain money and experience or if I leave now. Profesionally, it's a bit early, I think, but with Joe deploying, we will have more financial stability/cushion than we will in the future.
I now have pretty good contacts where I live. I guess it's just a matter of parlaying that into business. (Did I use that word correctly? I can hear it in my head but it looks weird.)
Barb, in terms of wording, I wonder if your lawyer can work in a reference to Arkell v. Pressdram (1971). (Worth clicking the link if you don't already know the story.)
"...more of a guideline, really."
I'm sorry about the job, Stephanie. Maybe that Joe is deploying could be a good excuse to bail now.
edit: meant to add, I could have sworn you had a Nook, Erin. bummer. Well, the offer to share is open to anyone who gets one.
Tough decision, Stephanie. The commute and the overall situation sounds brutal. If you can manage it, a new plan might be the best idea.
Yay Drew!
Sorry about the job news, Stephanie. May something better come along right now.
Deena!
... other than that, I've got nothing. Today is apparently a bad brain chemistry day.
Yay Drew!
Sorry about the job Stephanie, that would have been pretty nice if it had worked out.
Deena Deena Deena!!! SQUISH!!!
edit: How's the foot?

Hee.
We once had a rediculously contentious multi-party, multi-nation case where the one other local counsel refused service of a notice of deposition because it hadn't come, per Hague Conventions requirements, with funds to cover transportation.
We looked up the fees to cover fifteen blocks of travel, wrote a

wordy and formal letter of apology, taped two subway tokens to it, and sent the bitch back.
