You’d think that if you

You’d think that if you fax someone something, the fax was received, and nothing further was said that everything is kosher, correct? I guess not. I just got another letter from the honorable and competant Virginia Office of Taxation saying we owe them \$5000 for 1998, a year in which I don’t think I travelled […]

I’m back at work, and

I’m back at work, and dang people, can you send more mail? Just between the first and third I received 100+ pieces of mail, mostly work related. How scary is that? Just a little update on LawverHappenings: Christmas was great. Max was adorable and everyone was laid back and had a good time. There were […]

The basement is painted. The

The basement is painted. The tiny bathroom is painted. I am still fighting my sinus infection and feel like crap. I should call the doctor, but I haven’t. Jen’s uncle died last night. We were going to go up to Michigan to visit him on Monday, but that visit’s turned into a funeral, and she […]

Max’s Wall Monkey, because monkey

This Modern World could not

This Modern World could not be more brilliant this fine Monday morning. And completely unrelated to that other than the fact that’s it’s not a phantom of lost anything, Max is too great. His little self slept in this morning and didn’t make a peep until I was getting ready to leave. He usually wakes […]
