Heels: horrible loss to Duke
Wales: absolutely destroyed by England
Ferrari: disappointing performance
Liverpool: losing badly in the cup final

Really truly terrible weekend to be me and be invested in my teams.

Phenomenal week in the motherland, including a spontaneous drop-in visit to my alma mater and catch up with the ever-wonderful @nicolaharris.bsky.social, then to @middletemple.bsky.social for the St. David’s Day Dinner alongside @phatsilkkc.bsky.social and many other fabulous people. Happy feelings.

So in a really fun development, I’m going to be taking up the role of Adjunct Professor of Law at North Carolina Central University next semester, teaching Evidence. This has been a huge ambition of mine for ages and I’m thrilled! #LetsGoEagles

There’s a special eyebrow raising glance that workers at the supermarket reserve for the late-20s man buying cold medicine, an oven pizza, a bottle of wine, and a tub of ice cream. And you know what? Fair.
