Football and Work...

After Amy and I had a nice little breakfast (cheese omelets and toast), I spent the first few hours of today watching the first Sunday NFL games with Brendan. Football....eases the pain....

....of having to work over the weekend...bleah! I realized I had to turn in a brief today (Monday) on Thursday afternoon - I spent a few hours in the law library futilely trying to find a legal theory my client could have a good case with. Unfortunately, it's becoming damage control now, to try to minimize the amount of liability he'll have. I'm kind of ashamed at my work, since there's little chance I can win this case. I'm trying to convince the client to settle, but he doesn't have enough money to credibly settle the case. Oy.

It turns out the attorney for the plaintiff in this case (I represent two of the three defendants) gave the attorney for the other defendant a two-week extension and didn't tell me. (He offered it to me as well when I called him this afternoon.) All this worry for nothing. Yeesh.
