Bartlett and the rest of my clients on the lurch the previous afternoon. I gave Mr. Coffee a drink and switched him on, took the telephone off the answering machine, and strode purposefully to my desk, determined to put in a full, boring day of lawyering.
Julie had left one of her neat little stacks of new memos in the middle of my desk. “Mrs. Bartlett heartbroken. Rescheduled Thursday 2:00,” read the one on top. “Mr. Franklin insists on conference re Webb case. Call ASAP.” Doc Adams had called
... twice in the afternoon. “Questioning your priorities,” Julie had noted editorially. “Don’t forget Billy’s tuition payments,” read another.
And so it went. I shoved them aside and went back to the coffee maker, thanked it for its reliability (as opposed to my own, as Julie’s messages had succeeded in pointing out), and poured myself a black mugful.
When the telephone rang I automatically answered, “Hello,” before I remembered to add, “Brady L. Coyne, Attorney at Law.”
