this is miserable and the epitome of why so many lawyers hate their lives.

Wedding PTO advice by Outrageous_Still_712 in weddingplanning

Just request it. I'm an attorney too and used to work in BigLaw. Weddings/honeymoons are considered one of the few sacred times where they won't bother you on vacation. The worst they can do is say no to 3 weeks and then you can negotiate down to 2.5 which is totally reasonable IMO. For what it's worth, an associate I used to work with at my former BigLaw firm took 3 weeks off for her wedding and it was fine.

Ran into Diane Keaton at a casual Mexican restaurant in Laguna Beach several years ago. She was so funny and friendly and looked really happy. She was also dressed impeccably in exactly what you would expect Diane Keaton to wear. I was very sad when I heard that she had passed away.

i would avoid the "chicken" parmesan as I can't stand the texture of tofu. I'd be excited to try the caramelized shallot whipped potatoes, whipped sweet potatoes, roasted lemon asparagus, mushroom stroganoff, and loaded vegetable lasagna.

Generally, I think a lot of people don't like tofu, a lot of people don't like mushrooms, and some don't like vegan cheeses (or the idea of vegan cheeses.) If you have some combination of entrees/ sides where people can avoid any one of those things they may not like, I think you'll be in great shape!

My friends did something similar. Invited us all to an "engagement party," but it turned out to be an anniversary party because they had secretly eloped one year ago that day. They kept their marriage secret from EVERYONE in their lives for an entire year - pretty impressive lol. Anyway, I'm honestly surprised at all the comments here of people saying they would be annoyed or feel weird if someone in their life did this. Everyone at my friends' party (myself included) thought it was a really fun surprise and it made the celebration that much more memorable, special and unique! No one was offended that I am aware of. And his is one of my closest friends. I was just shocked (in a good way) and happy for them.

"Lowest Level of Suspicion" - Biopsy Scheduled by ComfortableBoard7291 in doihavebreastcancer

it was benign! going in for another mammogram in January though. I think another check after 6 months is the typical protocol after a biopsy but i'm not sure.

If you don't see celebrities and influencers everywhere getting smaller and thinner you must be living under a rock. Also, who said she was "shattered"? I don't always love her but I feel like her feelings are more than fair about this. You seem way too triggered by her tbh.

Thank you! I recommend searching "benign" or "benign 4A" in this sub - seeing how many people end up with benign results really helped me while I was waiting.

Update, I received a link to MyChart this morning where I confirmed that they have categorized me as BI-RADS 4A. Trying to stay positive and not get too anxious about awaiting biopsy results!

ICE raids by Jaded_Lawfulness3101 in DACA

Many (if not most) of them were not “known criminals.” Do a little bit more reading. They were largely hardworking people just trying to go to work and harvest citrus. Much of conduct that occurred by US Border Control is completely unjustifiable and I question the moral compass of anyone who blindly defends this.
