A couple of months ago, just after my first appearance in family court, when I was at my lowest of lows in life, I also took on a new job. Shortly after, my boss started rumblings about a conference in Vegas. I prayed. Please, please, please take me.

After he asked me to go, I think I hung up the phone and cried happy tears. How lucky was I?
