Sorry -- don't mean to scare anyone, but it is official -- I'm now old. This is my first (but certainly not last) pair of prescription glasses. As modeled by... me.

One of the things I like about working for a larger law firm are the occasional social opportunities. One of the things I hate about working for a larger law firm are the occasional social opportunities.

Why this dichotomy? because it is a crap shoot as to whether I'll have a good time. I like my co-workers pretty well. They're a good bunch... for lawyers (and people who work around lawyers). But let's face it -- I'm not really about socializing with the people I work with and for. Nothing against them -- as I said, they're a really good bunch of people. But sometimes the fun factor isn't there.

Tonight, however, was spectacular. The firm acquired a river cruise on the potomac, and it was great. The weather was near perfect, the scenery was great, the boat went from the new hotel/convention center south of the new Wilson bridge, all the way down to Georgetown, with a little detour into the Anacostia basin. The food was good, the drinks were fine and the conversation was fun.

I'm glad I didn't pass!
