Because it’s a day in April 2024 that ends in a y, I’m back in another random airport on my way to yet another destination. This time, though, I’m traveling with one of my twins to help her pick out an apartment where she’ll be going to school next year, so it’s much more fun! 😊
Everyone has a song that always takes them back to a perfect time in their life. This is my song, playing in my Walkman each time I stretched and warmed up for a tennis meet during my senior year of college. What’s yours? youtu.be/U0N8OWwBahc?si… via @YouTube

Wheels down at LAX, but that doesn’t seem like progress because I’m now farther from Grand Rapids than I’ve been at any other point on this meandering, six-flight trip to Reno and back. 🤦♂️
At the end of a great annual conference in Reno, I was chosen to be the next president of the American College of Business Court Judges, which means the 2025 conference will be held in my home state of Michigan for the first time! So honored and excited! @MISupremeCourt
To my family’s frustration, whenever I’ve been a public official (either elected or appointed), I’ve declined to sit in first class when flying even if it’s offered to me. This is:
Today’s itinerary takes me from Grand Rapids to Minneapolis to Salt Lake City to Reno, where I’m supposed to be in a meeting 30 minutes after I land. What’s the chance that I’ll make that meeting on time?
So you knew how the battle for the MIAA championship turned out at Stowe Stadium at @kcollege today, right? Dynasties gonna dynasty. 😉
Say hello to our newest rescue cat, Puff Puff. She’s the AMC Pacer of cats and she has a little hitch in her giddy up, but she’s a very sweet kitty. And she purrs while she eats. 😉
This may seem odd, but I enjoy working on the weekends. I can get so much more done when I’m not regularly interrupted. I wrote an entire opinion in just four hours today. It would have taken me two days during the week when I can’t keep my focus on a project. #AppellateTwitter
I love this Twitter account! It routinely replies to me and others with sophisticated, well-informed posts about #Illini and Big Ten basketball, but it also makes my mouth water with posts about delectable offerings like this. What range it has! 😋

Day 1 of my judging is finished. We focused on the 4th Amendment and technology. The New Hampshire team said it would be abhorrent if technology would result in every person being convicted of every crime they commit. I responded: Live free or die, right? @CivicEducation
Flying from Grand Rapids to Virginia to judge a competition this weekend, I hadn’t planned to spend a night in Atlanta, but here I am. Weather has backed up the Atlanta airport, so it’s off to a hotel on my own dime. Travel is so much fun! 🙄😬🤦♂️
Delta tells me that, after hours of work, this plane will soon be ready to fly to Detroit. Common sense tells me otherwise. Heck, they still have a whole team taking it apart. 😳😬

I went to law school thinking I’d spend all day in my office reviewing contracts and never going to court. Yea, that didn’t happen. Had my first federal jury trial as a first year and that was that. I was a born litigator!
Law Twitter: Did you go to law school knowing that you wanted to have the career you got upon graduation? When did you have the "ah ha" moment when you decided you're best suited as a transactional lawyer or a litigator (or tax lawyer, regulatory lawyer, etc.)?
