So I’m a Stalker. Big Whoop.
Last night, I had a few of my fellow Gothamist Foodies over, so on my way home, I stopped at the Whole Foods in Chelsea for some nibbles. I’m walking around, doing my thing, and I notice this woman who looks familiar. It took a second, and then I thought to myself — that’s Smitten!

The Unwritten Code
So I was busted again yesterday. I was at a meeting of professional colleagues yesterday — let’s just say it was a room full of folks who have the kind of job that I want. (I’m that close . . . but not quite there). Anyhow, a few of them know about my blogging; more

Show Me the Power of the Interweb
I know that people in law firms are reading this — now get out there, talk to your managing partners and pro bono folks, and tell them this: Pro bono has a significant impact on a law firm’s bottom line – the most successful law firms in the country have strong pro bono programs, which

Vacation, All I Ever Wanted . . .*
Today is my first official day of a two-week vacation. "Where are you going?" you might ask. "Nowhere," I’ll reply. It’s two weeks in NYC — time to do all those things I threaten to do all the time but never quite get around to as much as I’d like: go to museums, movies, possibly

Back in the Game
The plague seems to have passed once again, hopefully for good this time. Made it to work yesterday, and even to our work holiday dinner. One more day and then I’m off for two weeks for a vacation right here in sunny NYC. But tonight, it’s Slice on Ice — the Slice Pizza Club trip
