Blogger Meet!
During our trip to Chicago, I had the chance to meet LawMom for coffee. This was my first in-person blogger meeting, and it was terrific! LawMom is just as personable as her blog would suggest—she’s chatty and interesting and fun, and I’m so glad we got the chance to meet. (Mr. Angst tagged along, and he tolerated our law and blawg chatter pretty well.)
And of course, we talked a lot about why we’re applying to law school and what we want to do when we’re done, and I’m just so impressed with her whole outlook on the process. Unlike me (!) she’s wanted to go to law school for such a long time. And even though other things in her life have happened first—marriage, having kids, being a stay-at-home-mom—she still wants to go. I’m so very impressed by that. I can tell LawMom really wants to be a lawyer, and I think she’ll be a terrific one.
So I’ll recommend to all you blawgers out there (and bloggers): if you get the chance, have a blogger meet! It’s fun to put a face and a voice and mannerisms to the words you’ve been reading for so long.

If you’re ever up in the DFW area, let me know. Would enjoy saying hello. Lunch is on me!
Thanks so much for the compliments and kind words. I had a great time, and hope we can do it again sometime!
I know all of the blawgers here at Michigan and I’ve had the opportunity to meet a few others (notably from OSU) over the past year. I am doing a lot of traveling this summer and look forward to meeting a bunch of others. I’m glad you two could meet; I enjoy both of your blogs!
