		<description>I&#039;m there now.  The file is put away.  The desk has much more surface area.  I&#039;m rethinking taking on family law cases.  I&#039;m ready to spend the next two days maintaining the all-important tanlines and bonding with Diego.</description>

		<p>Procrastinating at the moment.  Got a big hearing this afternoon, but I&#8217;m not mentally dealing with it yet.  Focusing on my life once I&#8217;m past it.  Clean desk.  Significantly less family law stress.  Saturday.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be mostly alone this weekend since Spinner&#8217;s going to be with his M.Ed cohort.  May head out to <a title="On the cliffs over Torrey Pines" href="http://vista.howlingpoint.net/z/Local%20and%20around%20town/Howling%20Point%20Break/IMG_6984crop.jpg.php" target="_self">Torrey Pines</a>, since I haven&#8217;t been in forever and Spinner doesn&#8217;t normally like the cliffs.  If I survive this afternoon I&#8217;m going to need some sun and some sea water and a complete lack of cell phone reception, and that might just do it.</p>
