The Holiday that Keeps on Giving

Man, that was a long Tuesday.  Whatever work I'd normally have done on a regular Monday got shifted over, but not before building up interest. 

Between the longish calendar in the courtroom and the pile of weekend cases awaiting review for tomorrow, I put in an 8am-8:45pm day.  I did stop in the cafe on my way back to the office for a bagel.  And I looked up the Sox game when I was nearing the end.  So figure that's about .5hrs downtime.  What's left over is a damn full day.  There are also 5 cases set-for-trial cases in my (temporary?) portion of the files.  However, one of the team will be rolling back in tomorrow, so we'll not only be at full strength for the day, but we'll have someone who knows those cases very well. 

I'm working with three attractive, funny, and very talented female attorneys.  Yeah, yeah, I know - have pity on me. 

I do have to say that if this caseload stays steady, the best I can hope for is to learn via osmosis instead of going after things I need to get better at - and not all of that is law and process.  My vocal projection is still crappy.  Sigh.
