I find myself thinking about how much time, thought, and care I put into the farewell email I sent out when I left the law firm that I worked at after law school as I spend barely a passing glance looking at the farewell emails people are sending out at the law firm I work at now.

Turns out wearing long underwear under your jeans is good for staying really warm outside in cold weather, sweating like crazy from an otherwise normal walkabout, and falling asleep on the sofa immediately after getting home.

Caught up watching the Australian Open men's semis and daaaaaaaaaaaamn those were crazy good matches. *Very* disconcerting to find myself enjoying seeing Djokovic beat Sinner. Hope Alcaraz can take his final missing major, but if not... what a run for the extremely good (super douche-y) Belorussian.
