The intermittent musings of a pedantic public defender...
Sunday
Here I Am...
In scenic Macon Georgia, for my annual stint at the National Criminal Defense College. It's 97 degrees and my A/C isn't working too well. The room smells musty and after 5 minutes in the halls, I'm drenched in sweat.
Macon: Went there myself as a student 3 years ago and it changed my life and, not by chance, the lives of my clients. It was about so much more than new skills or recharging the battery. I found genuine recognition and support for the deep pain this work manufactors which I had, until then, no real idea had been slowly eating me alive.
If you have never been you owe it to yourself to go.
Yep,
ReplyDeleteI'm on the faculty--so I'm only here for one of the two weeks, but I do make it a point to come down every year to teach.
Lol, welcome to Georgia ;)
