Weekly MILP Roundup #130

28 Dec

The Weekly MILP (Moms In the Legal Profession) Roundup** is hosted on a rotating basis at the PT-LawMom, Attorney Work Product and A Little Fish in Law School blogs and is usually posted no later than Monday morning. Next week Proto Attorney will have it.

Proto Attorney - “I have a feeling I’m about to have a front row seat for a train wreck.”

Lag Liv - “Sometimes he makes me want to hug him so tight and them freeze time for at least 3 years so I can properly soak him up.”

Butterflyfish – “The good news is my plumbing is in working order.”

Cee – “I mean, aside from living the next three months with my breath held until a nice little income stream starts pouring in, the whole being in debt and living off my credit cards is starting to get to my subconscious as well.”

Dakota – “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”

Magic Cookie – “When I gave it to him, he took a big bite out of the head.”

Googie Baba - “I feel like women are always being manipulated either by religion or love to sacrifice things of value.”

Surviving Law School as a Single Mom - “You see, the moment I became pregnant, my life as I knew it ceased. It was no longer about me; it was about this amazing life that I was growing inside of me. I was able to start gaining strength to leave your abuse because I would never have my child bear witness or be influenced by your hateful ways. As I result, I started preparing. Deep down, I always knew it would come to this. And guess what? You will not win.”
If you would like to have your blog added to the MILP blogroll for weekly review or would like us to consider a specific post, drop the hostess(es) an email or leave a comment at their respective sites.
