Not as self-absorbed as Twitter but I don&#8217;t know how to do Twitter&#8211;at least not yet.\u00a0Although maybe they are saying that we aren&#8217;t providing enough quotidien details of our time here?

I am overdue on a certain chapter of a book (as well as needing to deal with a few real work-related matters) and Sandy has regular work to do.<\/p>\n<p>I have to say it was sobering, spending the last few hours reading OR cases and recent Lawyers&#8217; Weekly and other slush-pile material that we brought with us and working on\u00a0the book\u00a0chapter. Enough of that!<\/p>\n<p>A boring entry, no?
