Vacation (All I Ever Wanted)*
I don't think I've ever felt the need for a winter getaway as strongly as I did this winter. Luckily, I had friends getting married in sunny Palm Springs, California this past weekend. Sun, palm trees, pool, and good times. Ahhhh. *A nod, of course, to the Go-Go's.

Busy Busy Bee
Sorry for the radio silence, kids. I have been a little busier than I'd prefer and when I have had down time, I have had zero interest in being in front of a computer. I am currently on an Amtrak en route to DC for a conference law school public interest/pro bono people and am

I'm a little sad, as the company I'm going with — Blue Marble — is winding down after this season. I've traveled

Pacific Northwest Recap
I still feel like I'm recovering from Portland and Seattle — a week full of work inspiration, friends, laughs, and wonderful food and drink. Many thanks to those I got to see, especially to those who treated me to food, drinks (and lodging) during my journey! xoxo The Knock Back Expatriate The Rookery at Raven

Way Out West
My apologies for the radio silence. I have been crazy-busy preparing for, traveling to, and participating in the Equal Justice Conference in Portland, Oregon. While I’ve been here, I have also been trying to spend time with my cocktail and non-conference friends as well — always a juggling act, but always worth it. I’m headed

The Perfect View
While eating a lobster roll or fried clams. In case you're wondering, it's the Two Lights Lobster Shack in Cape Elizabeth, Maine. (and here's a very off-kilter picture of my delicious fried clams)
