This past weekend I went to Arizona to visit family. Grandparents and Aunt and Uncle. It's so great to spend time with family, even if I am the ever-weak link in the pinochle games. Ah well.
So I guess my grandfather is having some issues with his brain. Sometimes I wish I went into medicine instead of law because I HATE it when I don't understand things that are happening. But then again, there is a lot in medicine that is uncertain (including my Schamberg's disease), so knowing that no one knows might likewise be pertwerbing. But I love them and I'm sure I'll be doing my fair share of internet searching.
I also watched Hillary's speech tonight. I cried. It's as if she read my mind. "Did you vote for me or what I stand for?" She's right. As pissed as I am at Obama, and as much as I doubt his abilities to lead this country, I have to admit that I believe in the Democratic ideals. I hate to admit I'd rather have him than McCain. I'm far from a McCain supporter and I'd never vote for him. That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that I dislike Obama so much that I considered voting for Nader. Yikes. I know, it's really unlike me. But that's life. At least it's my life right now. And I do like Biden, especially since he's such an ardent supporter of workers' rights and labor.
I'm exhausted right now and my other strange, indecipherable condition (chostocondritis) (sp?) is really acting up tonight. And I might have to stay up late to have a chat with my favorite man, so I should get going.
I'm sorry I don't blog much. It's just difficult to find the time now that I'm working more than I ever anticipated, our new paralegal is making my (and our legal assistant's) job harder. I mean, someone who calls themself a paralegal should be able to use Westlaw, right? The thing is, I don't work for her. In the food chain, she's below me. And I don't get paid (since I'm an hourly contractor) to help her do her work. I can't bill for it. Whatever. I just need to lay down.

Our mutual friend told me where you went! I'm glad you didn't totally vanish.
I voted for Hillary but am supporting Obama. The way I figure it is this. The things she stood for...there is only one candidate who has the capacity to enact those things and it's Obama. One thing to take note of is this. The President is an organizer and, for whatever one thinks of Obama he organized a great campaign and surrounded himself with people who knew how to do it. I always admire people who are willing to surround themselves with smart people. My biggest concern with this whole thing, however, is that I think that Hillary would have smoked McCain and this might turn out close and I can't predict who will win.
