this week has been grueling. but in a good way, i suppose. monday started off with meetings. tuesday i was at the capitol ALL day waiting for another bill i testified for (this time for the senate). the cool thing about that was this committee meeting was actually in the senate chamber rather than a little hearing room. the capitol is really so beautiful. why don't they make buildings like that anymore??? the other cool thing was that this bill received a lot more support and optimism from the committee members (but i do love the challenge of dealing with people who don't agree with me). the not so cool thing was that i did not get home until almost midnight. yes, we were at the capitol until after 8pm waiting to testify.
today i had to scramble to finish a grant application for a non-profit i'm on. i was glad to do it because i have never written a grant app before, but it has eaten so much of my time. my intake pile of new cases has been growing and i have trials next week that i need to prepare for. AND, today was the last day for one of the attorneys in my office and i am sad. i don't think i've ever been this sad about someone quitting, but this time i really am. she was such an awesome person and a GREAT lawyer. and considering we haven't hired her replacement yet, things around the office are going to be insane. ugh. i'd better go home and catch up on some zzz's while i still can.
