I am moving to another court next week. This is now the 4th court I have been assigned to since Jan. 1, 2009. But this move should last for a couple of months. I am being moved to one of the hardest felony courts in Harris County. It's got a reputation for either making or breaking prosecutors. Hopefully, I will be in the "making" category. Now I will get to prosecute all sorts of felonies -- not just drug possession. But I won my 1st felony trial last week. The defendant was sentenced to 7 years. The jury wrote a "Thank You" note on a yellow sheet of paper. I made a photocopy. The whole experience was surreal and I still have not absorbed or even enjoyed the experience because the annoucement for personnel moves came out and I had to prepare for my new court. My friends Jenn from Florida and Maribel from San Antonio came for a visit. Here we are outside the courthouse and just hanging out with Fred.

wow, awesome! In 10 years I expect to see you on the Supreme Court! Either that or get your own TV show Judge Angela.
