Because they'll have lost your luggage on the plane?

That's actually awesome. It was bad enough leaving at night - I couldn't imagine trying to leave when there was actually traffic.

I was named a finalist for a Presidential Management Fellowship.

It's not a job yet, but I will be attending the job fair in DC this month (you would not believe the deal on a totally SWANKY hotel I got - right in the middle of everything). There are some really interesting opportunities through this program. There are already some postings for jobs that would combine all my interests into one phenomenal career. They're not conventional legal practice, but they would definitely make use of my training, and several are sufficiently "legal-esque" that the experience would likely be seen as an asset if I wanted to transition to practice later. In fact, the DoJ specifically includes those coming out of the PMF program in the list of those who can apply for entry-level positions there.

Anyhow, I'm very thrilled to have made it this far. If I am named as a fellow, it will likely result in my joining the bitter east coaster club; there are positions throughout the country, but most are in DC.

It might lead to a new job and it might not - but it's an excuse for me to finally visit DC.

YAY Pru!!!

I'm off work for a week. That makes me totally seriously happy.
