Change in Plans

Trial started Monday, January 22. By the morning break, the attorneys told me they wanted me there the entire time. So much for my sweet relief!

Nevertheless, we finished the first week of trial. Junior1 wasn't too bad. He enjoys being in trial so much that despite the inherent stress of being in trial, he was in cheerful spirits. He was not condescending or patronizing at all this week. It may have helped that co-counsel regularly commented appreciatively on my excellent work. He did still failed to introduce me when we, as a team, greeted witnesses, colleagues, etc.
