Antisocial May 23, 2004
I’ve survived two firm events, one on Thursday night and one last night. I’m really not a fan of these type of events. It’s not that I don’t like hanging out with other people from time to time, but these events are so contrived. Everyone is so schmoozy. I would much rather go to something where everyone can just chill and be themselves. My husband and I have vowed not to atte
nd anymore of these hoity toity events.
One of my biggest pet peeves at one of these shin digs is having people ask me, “So what do you do?” I just want to say “NOTHING.” It doesn’t help when I’m one of a few non-lawyers in attendance. I just end up kind of chuckling and saying, “I’m not working right now.” What I really should say is, “I’m supposed to be a stay at home mom, but thanks to this wonderful thing called infertility, I’m just spinning my wheels waiting to take all the millions of steps necessary to finally get pregnant.” The nurse I had for my HSG was great. She asked me, “So, do you work outside the home?” I said “no”, and she said “how wonderful.”
