Anony… uh-oh
Yeah, that anonymous thing? My blog (yep, not a fan of “blawg”) was just picked as one of ABA Journal’s Top 100 Blawgs!
This has me just a wee bit scared, especially as this list will be featured in the December 2007 issue of the ABA Journal, which all of my bosses and many of my classmates read. And of course the winter break will give them lots of great reading time. Finally, the description of my blog pretty much nails me to the wall in terms of easily-identifiable info. Sigh…
So I guess I’ll just say “Hi Guys!” Welcome!
And if you think you know me and want to share that fact with the world, please e-mail me at ptlawmom at gmail dot com for a little heads up first. Thanks!
PT-LawMom made the Your So-Called Life category, along with Ms. JD. I’m putting the “Vote for Me” button below so you can get to the right page, but I would encourage you all to vote for Ms. JD instead. Those wonderful female law students, with the support of some great female attorneys, are blogging about a lot of very fascinating and thought-provoking issues affecting women in the field today (and they just had a wonderful interview with Justice O’Connor). I have been and remain very hopeful that their work will lead to great changes for women in the legal field. That reminds me to tell you that I read a wonderful article in the December issue of Student Lawyer that makes the case for job-sharing as a solution to the work/life balance issue at law firms. The author points out that doctors do it all the time (think surgeons at a hospital) and no one blinks, so why not lawyers?
Anyway, vote for Ms. JD and then assuage your guilt by visiting my Amazon.com store (at left) to purchase all of your textbooks for next term!
P.S. Um, ABA Journal, where is Ana’s blog? And Kim’s (you mention a cancer struggle in the notes, but I don’t see her blog). What about so many of the other wonderful law student bloggers out there. And as fantastic as the solo bloggers who made the cut are, where is Chuck Newton on this list? His blog is extremely helpful and he blogs so regularly, which keeps my Bloglines happy.

Congratulations on getting picked, PT! It’ll be fine, you’ll see.

Good for you! Sniff, for me! I guess they really don’t like me since I’m still in their all time Top Ten most read…and the Law Bitches were nominated for the student category and they don’t even write anymore. I feel like I’m the kid that didn’t get picked for kickball!
I guess I shouldn’t feel too bad in that my law-related posts are few and far between.
Congrats though!

Congratulations! You are such a devoted little blogger. You deserve the recognition.

You’re right, Ana, I hadn’t even noticed! I think we need a “The Bitches are Dead, Bring in the Boozers” campaign to get you on the list.
Or what about a “Most Creative Blog” category? There are so many out there that are tongue-in-cheek or bring a new spin to things and yours would totally win. I think the oversight is really odd!

Congratulations, it is well deserved.

Congratulations!! I think your posts are certainly thought-provoking!
