u may recall JH’s & my running joke we would name Kid1 ”Estuary.” and 1) he did end up with a middle name in tribute to the Estuaire du Saint-Laurent 2) we still call him Essie. the current joke is that the one I’m gestating now will be named Alamo. had to label rooms for the movers and, well

“Bedroom #3 (MoMo)” is written in marker on a torn piece of lined paper, attached to a white wall with blue painter’s tape

1) did u know that the CDL requirement kicks in at 26,000lbs gross vehicle weight 2) did u also know they will hand almost any idiot with a drivers license the keys to a 25,999lbs GVW truck source: I drove the largest truck i could legally obtain through the Smoky Mountains

yes!!!! Sex House is unsettlingly hilarious and remains horrimazingly relevant in the era of certain youtubers convincing people to be tormented in exchange for money. also, “Breathe normally. Prepare for mist.” has permanently entered our household lexicon

me: so there’s a bsky meme about if your 20-year-old self would be impressed by or disappointed in you JH: I don’t think there’s ANYTHING I could be doing now that would impress me at 20 me: [fingerguns] being married to me? JH: [long hesitation] me: OH COME ON, that was a LAYUP, man

on the one hand, if I make it thru Dec at this job, I get my bonus (search “biglaw cravath scale market bonus” to get a sense of the magnitude; mine is around 75% of that). and if I make it to the 2nd week of January, I get 5 months combined paid pregnancy-disability & parental leave

love 2 have 2 scar the new lateral associate on his 3rd day by warning him that under no circumstances should he tell BossF that he’s having a kid in February until he needs to start actual handoff on his matters or she will kick him off things early if and when it pleases her

told them thanks but no thanks for continuing to interview for the less-senior role. BIG SIGH

v. greyson @v-greyson.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

as predicted they have hired the internal person for the senior role and would I be interested in continuing the conversation and having further interviews for one of the slots reporting to the internal guy they hired……….sigh

also like. if you know a house on the market is occupied and you request a showing on the shortest possible available timeline in the middle of a weekday, then show up 5 minutes early and stay 30+ minutes past the end of your showing window: you better fucking buy that fucking house (they won’t)

v. greyson @v-greyson.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

today my childcare unexpectedly ended 90 min early at the same time as a house showing went 30 min over, and I was just like “you know what, fuck this,” put up an away message on Teams, got the kid and the dog in the car, and went to get a sandwich.

“can we watch a skiing video today?” sure bud what kind of skiing video “the ones where they are skiing on their back” uh...I don’t think people ski that way????? “no, we watched videos like that before!” …do you mean luge? The people laying down on sleds who go fast down a track? “yes. loog”

this afternoon I tried to simultaneously run a committee meeting on Zoom & do childcare handoff from babysitter + get kid settled and then 30 seconds before the call started, I discovered the dog had been trapped in the basement, gotten diarrhea, & dog and basement were covered in shit

somehow the maternal-fetal medicine office has managed to phrase this in the most hilarious way possible

A survey questionnaire box labeled “Contraception and Hormonal Therapy.” The question underneath says “Are you currently using birth control? If yes, what type?” Below it is a dropdown box. The selected option just says “Pregnant”

for reasons that don’t bear explaining at this juncture, I have been doing far more than usual of the childcare for a bit and today the kid said, unprompted and as if to himself, “It’s more boring with Mom.” I asked compared to what and he said “It’s more boring with Mom than with Dad” 💀

tonite during the goodbyes at client dinner #2 i assertively stuck my hand out to shake and this dude shook my hand and then came in on the other side with the side hug. DONT TOUCH ME

v. greyson @v-greyson.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

Awkward scenario tonight with three people at dinner from the client, two of whom I’ve known for 10 years and genuinely like and am OK with hugging goodbye, but number 3 is the world’s smuggest man and I was like “if this guy tries to hug me I WILL bite him”

u ever have a job interview that u think is going really well and then they drop that they have an internal candidate for the posted job but they’re also considering people for a less-senior role, maybe u would be interested in the less-senior role

still completely in limbo about whether job will approve a remote work exception or if i will no longer have a job after I move next month. HR said yesterday they are having “internal discussions“ and will have a ”final answer“ soon. cryptic, ominous, zero percent transparent…perfect

listen I’m very aware I’m in the millennial 1% by owning a house at all, so I am not complaining per se. but selling your house is just a hilarious string of “ma’am this is a Wendy’s”-level encounters with people

I had an exceptionally good job interview last night which concluded with the interviewer telling me he had no reservations about my candidacy and would love for me to progress……..but they need to hire a specialist and they haven’t decided what speciality they want yet

me to the client: totally agree that I am the only lawyer our expert can stand & I’m genuinely happy to work with him. but. You have to know that essentially you are sending a border collie to try to corral another border collie, and sometimes we’re just gonna end up chasing each other in a circle

oh, yes, and, right, work is sending me abroad on Sunday for the first time in 6 years. now??? NOW????? pictures of the house for the listing happen in ~60 hours, but I leave for the airport to fly to central Europe for 4 days in ~36 hours meaning house must be in show-ready condition by then

job quitting update. I told Jr Partner L (who was an associate with me but was on a fast partnership track whereas I have always intended to slow roll) I was quitting and was like, “do you hate this job? Or is it working with BossF?” and I was like, well, the latter, but I don’t see a way to stay

v. greyson @v-greyson.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

I have started trying to quit but the first partner I told (not Boss) is desperate to keep me and trying to talk me out of it which I guess is flattering but is making it hard for me to leave gracefully & on good terms without burning bridges
