Howdy to any and all. I'm an ex-punk rock, anti-authority, Jeffersonian conservative, mid-thirties attorney and mother of two rowdy girls.

My politics are pretty simple, basically coming down to "stay the hell out of my business" unless I've committed a crime of some sort. Frankly, I couldn't care less what my neighbor is up to unless, to paraphrase Jefferson, it either breaks my leg or picks my pocket. It is that philosophy that inevitably got me away from the Democratic party, although I've gotta admit that the Republicans are currently taking to big government like ducks to water. What's a girl to do?
