Little Miss Law Does Dublin

My apologies, dear readers, for the radio silence on the blog for the past week. I took a much-needed long weekend and flew to Dublin, Ohio, land of real autumn, lots of quaint looking brick buildings (even McDonalds, which was an adorable house, missing the famous golden arches) and loads of football fans, but [...]

And so it goes.

Dear readers, I am waiting for a phone call at work, so what better time to update my blog?  So much more fun than, say (gasp!) doing actual work! 
My job has really been stressing me out this week.  I know I have a stressful job, and most of the time I try to just roll with [...]

Secrets about Little Miss Law

How’s that for a “hook”? 
The truth is that I have been planning all day to sit down tonight and write an appropriately witty blog…and then I sat down at my laptop and stared at the screen for about 10 minutes.  Riiiiiiight.  I’m just going to go ahead and blame that on jetlag and general tiredness [...]

Heading “Home”

Today is my last day up with the family before I return to L.A. this evening. It’s funny because whenever I talk to my parents about coming up to visit them, I always refer to it as coming “home” – but in reality, this isn’t my home anymore, and hasn’t been in many years, so [...]

Things I Don’t Want to Hear About While Eating

1)  The Zone Diet.
2) The “Paleo Diet.”
3) The Atkins Diet.
4) The South Beach Diet.
5)  Jenny Craig.
6)  The “French Women Don’t Get Fat” Diet.
I think you get the picture.
I love my co-workers, but it seems that lately, every other person in my office is on some diet or another.  And really, what better thing to talk about, [...]
