My cat saved my life.

Ok, so that may be a bit dramatic. Noodles didn’t literally save my life. He’s not Lassie or anything. If I fell down a well (or, you know, slipped in the shower, the apartment-life version of falling down the well) I don’t have much confidence that he would run and find someone [...]

At least he didn’t shoot the messenger…

This week, dear readers, I seem to have a lot of law fodder for the blog, since mostly all I’ve been doing this week is working!  Those of you who enjoy the “Law” part of Little Miss Law are in luck; those of you who enjoy something juicier will just have to wait until I [...]

Bloggity Bloggity

Apropos of nothing: is there a cuter TV couple than Jim and Pam on The Office? Yes, I know, how very 2 years ago. And yes, I know that in real life, John Krasinski is rumored to be somewhat of an ass. (Stop breaking my heart!) But I was just [...]

Ring a Ding Ding Part II

It has been a very long day, dear readers, but I felt compelled to finish it off with a blog. I woke up bright and early to drive to court this morning; sat outside the courtroom for almost an hour reviewing all the papers that had been filed in the case; sat in the [...]

Small Victories

So today I had my very first ever substantive oral argument in court.  As I wrote yesterday, I was quite anxious ahead of time, and as expected slept very poorly and had strange dreams.  (I watched House just before bed, leading to a dream in which Hugh Laurie was my judge.  But he was much [...]

Litigation is scary.

So this week, Little Miss Law’s laptop (aka the laptop she borrowed from work a lifetime ago and never returned), has managed to become infiltrated with a number of computer viruses.  (NO, I was not looking at porn!  Sheesh!)  This means that either I blog at work, which isn’t so good for the billable hours, or I don’t [...]

What is OK to wear to court?

So I went to court today, and as always when I go to court, I learned a few new things.  However, unless you are a first-year litigation attorney, (and probably even then), I can literally hear your eyes glazing over at the prospect of a blog post about ex parte applications, the filing window, and [...]

Adventures of Little Miss Law, Part II

Yet another quiet, breezy night at my laptop while Noodles sits in the window.  Sometimes I feel bad that I don’t have a yard for him to play in (one of the many drawbacks of apartment life), but he seems to get hours of enjoyment out of sitting in the window playing “watchcat.”  Plus, he [...]
