There has been a marked lack of posting here, but as I am currently unable to exit the house, I might as well crank out the backlog.

On working. The return to the rigors of law practice has thus far gone reasonably well. There are still some hitches in my various getalongs, but for the most part it’s been better than I could have hoped. Part of the credit goes to the fact that I’m back to doing things that I spent an awful lot of time and energy on during law school.

First Knit Complete. I made c. (I’ve instituted big C/little c anonymity for wife and kiddo, respectively) a scarf out of two balls of crazybuttersoft yarn (merino/cashmere blend – and no, that’s not the brand, but a descriptive term). I did it in stockinette and only screwed up once (but it was a doozy, right at the end). As promised, the scarf has quite a curl, but that adds to the cuteness. The baby blanket for Neil’s kiddo is coming along (about 3/4s done), and I learned a while back that I’m going to need to start another for Demetri’s baby as well. Yay babies!

Drafting as Coding epilogue. I’ve been gathering comments and ideas from a variety of sources regarding legal drafting as code (and/or vice versa – see John Metta’s riff on the analogy’s other direction). Rather than write them up properly, I’m going to synthesize them into some sort of top ten list, coming soon.

Ignited. Turned in my slides today, complete with infographics (yeah!) and New Yorker cartoon (19.95 power point license fee, all for you good people).

Plumbers have nothing to worry about. Um, holy crap, when did it start costing $200 to install a faucet? Joe et al. are going to be just fine during this recession, yo.
