I lived there for years - what are you there for/what do you want to do or be near?

For surfing, go to La Jolla, not Coronado (I love Coronado and will be at that Marriott next week, but it's no good for surfing). La Jolla is a lovely place as long as you have money, and can spend to eat/shop in La Jolla. Beautiful beaches and a very nice town - you'll have a good time there. This photo just south of Seal Rock at Cuvier Park - lots of surfing here:

My two favorites are the US Grant which is in San Diego proper, or the Inn at Rancho Santa Fe if you're looking a bit north.

No. It’s right downtown.

Downtown:
US Grant
Hotel Republic
The Guild

Near beaches:
Coronado Island Marriott
Westin and Sheraton Carlsbad (near Lego Land)

Old Style Country Living:
The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe (it’s far from everything but has its own charm)

Us grant is a great old hotel... But the homeless outside 24/7 is a real issue. I'd say the Sheraton Carlsbad (or the Westin literally next door) ...eat at Miguel's and the Windmill Food Hall while you are there. And don't miss the safari Park in Escondido...

If your hearts aren't set on San Diego...~ An hour north is the Ritz Carlton Laguna Niguel...fantastic spot

I used to live in San Diego. I would pick Coronado or La Jolla for the locations. La Jolla is closer to surfing, but Coronado is great to walk and bike around, also a golf course is right there. But honestly, San Diego is no surfer’s paradise.

HELP! I’ve been contacted by a small private security firm who wants me to be their “on call” counsel. They describe it as a lot of contract review, drafting NDAs, etc. but also being there if/when they need to license a vehicle, defend civil suit, etc. It’s overwhelming but sounds like a really great opportunity. I have enough background to be comfortable with contracts and litigation, but don’t want to get myself into a mess. Has anybody else ever had a job like this?

What are some things you guys outsource to save time and/or money? Lately I've been thinking it would be nice to find someone to make medical chronologies for me.

Was just diagnosed this week as an adult. Please tell me your medication success stories because I am apprehensive/stressed. Medication has a really negative stigma in my family so I have a negative perception of it.
