I can't promise greatness, since my worst entries are usually the ones written on the fly, but I'll try.

I spent most of last night revamping my resume. I haven't given it a good overhaul in a long time. I found a style many years ago that I liked, and it's now just a variation on that theme. I don't let anyone look at it anymore, which may be shooting myself in the foot, but I don't care. It's worked fine for me so far, and besides, when was the last time you gave someone your resume to review, and they just handed it back and said, "Looks good"? Never. Everyone's got an opinion about it because they're going to want to make it look more like theirs, and there comes a time when you just have to trust that you know how to write a resume and leave it at that.

The thing that's strange to me is how much I leave off now. I've had enough law-related jobs that they are the only ones on there now, which means that I'm leaving off a lot. I'm not worried about potential employers looking at the dates and wondering whether I was working (it does say "additional work experience available on request" at the bottom), but it just seems weird that I'm so much of an adult I have to leave off jobs. I remember trying to get jobs in college and having to come up with ways to make the resume a whole page.

I used Priceline for the first time last night to buy my tickets to Kansas City for New Year's. (Nothing like buying plane tickets the same day of some freaky plane accident.) I was picky, and wouldn't let it consider way early or way late flights, nor would I fly on non-jet planes. (I'm usually not skittish about that, but I was yesterday.) I initially put in $150 and it didn't come up with anything. Then I tried $175 and it found it on Northwest. Of course, after all the taxes and crap it's actually $200, but that's still not bad.

Maybe it's just that my life revolves around law so everything I do is filtered through that, but methinks there's something not quite lawful about the way Priceline operates. It just seems like you ought to have a right to know exactly what you're buying before you're charged for it.

I still used them, though. Shows you how much I care.

This may be the funniest thing I have read in a long time.

And in other random entertainment news, I'm pretty sure that I will no longer be able to listen to Howard Stern. When he was married, it was all just a big joke, but if he does that crap when he's single, he's just another adolescent radio guy. And I really wouldn't be able to stand it if he started bashing her.

Not that I've listened to him in forever anyway, so I suppose I don't really care. But I liked the movie, and thought it was just as much about how he loved his wife as it was about his career.

All the reports said it was amicable, though, so that's a good thing.

I still have an hour left to be in here, and I actually do have some work to do. Marissa and I are preparing for our trial which could be as early as Monday night, and I promised to do some research, so I guess I ought to go. Live, from the computer lab, this is Elizabeth, and on behalf of everyone here at Abeyance, have a nice day.
