The Sourdough Wars

I didn’t do while I was out being Today’s Action Woman and also trying to handle all the new clients I got as a result of the publicity. Which brings up another question. I now have a hot practice because the media unwittingly, in telling my story, defrauded people into thinking I’m a better lawyer than others of my age and experience. But am I? I know damn well I’m not. However, when I’m paying attention to my practice, I think I’m just as good.
    I have one fault, though—I let things get to me. For about a month after that night with Anita, I couldn’t stand the sight of sourdough.
