One of the many unsolicited e-mails that regularly pops up in my inbox comes from a blog called JDBliss — Balancing Life and the Law.

Aside from the fact that balancing life and the law is a complete oxymoron, JDBliss is pretty interesting. Much of its content focuses on the stories of miserable Big Firm Cogs who ditch their jobs to pursue lifelong dreams. Some examples: One Cog is touring the country as a magician; another opened a specialty chocolate boutique.
