I will! I used to write a lot about traveling but have stopped lately... maybe I'll re-start. Thanks for the suggestion.

It's not Ally McBeal or Boston Legal, but it certainly has its quirks (in good ways!). I'm very lucky -- my firm is an incredibly humane place to work, and my colleagues are kind and very intelligent people. It's not quite as fun as TV, but only because management has so far rebuffed my suggestion to play the Law & Order gongs at the end of every business day.

Such a difficult question to answer... to live for an extended period of time, it has to be Paris, New York or Berlin. But my favorite little tiny place is this town called Legrena in Greece - I've never been able to find it on a map, but I lived and worked there for a summer in law school and it was one of the most centering, truly quiet times of my life. I didn't have internet or a phone or TV in English or a legit address; the town had a bakery, a school, a church and two restaurants (owned by brothers - the Fish Restaurant and the Meat Restaurant), and that was it. I didn't see more than a dozen people in the town all summer. I worked during the day, then read books at the beach until the sun went down every evening, and spent my weekends doing the same. It was extremely lonely at first, but once I adjusted I really loved it, and have never felt so totally in control and peaceful and happy as I felt there.

So many places! I think Buenos Aires is next on my list, hopefully this spring. After Buenos Aires I was hoping to go to Yemen, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen anytime soon given current political issues, so perhaps Beirut if it's not being bombed. I've also been hearing amazing things about Guatamala, so that's up there too, and after going to part of Colombia I want to see more of it. If I ever have a big chunk of time (a month or more) it'll be India. (I should just quit my job and be a professional backpacker).

Yes. I want to write something clever here, but too tired.

I had some damn smart law school professors.

Waterworld. Although my most-hated-movie-that-everyone-else-loves is Garden State. Ugh.

I have not been answering because I've been at work! And it's 1:23 a.m.! And I want to go home! But I'm answering now because I'm waiting for someone to respond to something. Then I'm going home.

I love it, just not at 12:12 a.m., which is when I believe you called me last night after I worked a 15-hour day to tell me some idiotic story about a hot waiter. Assuming this is who I think it is.
-
A diet high in wine and cheese. (That's more of an answer to a "How" question, but you get me).
-
I do not sleep and I drink a lot of coffee, which makes me cranky and jumpy, which makes me much more fun in the bad-ass and feminist blogger department.
