When a Plan Comes Together
Babes in Washington
Here’s a new blog modestly described in a note by its authors as “a
stupid blog about life and law school in DC.” It’s far from stupid. It's the effort of three law school friends and it includes a link to the Babes in Poland blog. Two of these bloggers spent a semester in Cracow. One writes: We started the original Babes in Poland blog as a way to talk to our families while we were gone. Well, it got passed around and the next thing we knew there were 10,000 hits on the webpage. Crazy. After we got back, we got a ton of emails asking us to continue. So we did and here we are. From the most recent post:I received an early graduation gift from my mother this past week so I guess that means I better graduate or I'll have to give it back.
My mother, upon hearing a rumor that her daughter and friend were going to be appearing in court, did the only thing a mother can do in a situation like that and bought me a Louis Vuitton briefcase….

I feel guilty for being here. My childhood and all of my friends and family are just falling apart and I am here. I should be there.
Sept. 5: That being said, I am shutting things down on this blog for a while to focus my time and energy on more important matters. To any of my readers local to the Washington DC area, I will welcome any help you can provide.(Nod to DirectCurrent for this pointer)
