New Chair + New Toy



While in Boston Melissa and I bought a new chair for our living room. There is a lack of quality furniture stores in Syracuse for anyone younger than 75, so luckily this puppy came disassembled in a box small enough to fit into our car!

As you can see, Melissa is playing our new Nintendo DS; which even has games that she enjoys playing, such as Professor Layton and Picross.

Also, I am very much enjoying my internship at the Dept. of Justice. They are allowing me to do a lot of substantive work on current bankruptcy litigation, which is great experience for me to acquire. There is something very scary about being handed a case and told to review all of the information, and write a letter to the petitioner's attorney pointing out any problems I see with their petition, and my recommendations on how to fix it. Luckily everyone at the DOJ office is very friendly and helpful, so I don't feel bad when I have to stop someone mid-sentence to inform them I have no idea what-in-the-hell they are talking about.

Love the chair! You look so cute Melissa. I love your hair. I love that Professor Layton game! Parker just left his DS outside in the rain and now I have had to give him mine - for the second time!! I better get a new one soon! :(
