Mr. Potter!
I thought of a metaphor. Or a literary allusion. Or a way of describing something via something else. And it involves Harry Potter. While Harry was growing up, he felt ostracized and different....
Panic
Hello Anxiety. You bitch. I’m having what can only be described as a legitimate genuine panic attack. My heart is racing and breaking. I feel like vomiting. I want to scream at the top of my lu...
Those Days
Good morning, one and all, and welcome to The Circus of Life. This morning, my first hour of the day was receiving notifications from judges and attorneys telling me that the things I had been wo...
Brief & Redundant
Bah. I’m tired. The kind of tired where I want to sleep for seven months in a row. The kind of tired where it would be really nice to contract some horrible disease that lays me up in the hospi...
Private
Holy shit, I’m pathetic. This is/was going to be private… but I once promised myself that only things I was working on and intended to release would ever be private… and only so that I could wor...
Black's Law
I am very tired today. And in not so great a mood. Really, just feeling pretty seriously misanthropic today. In other words… Bernard Black from Black Books. But in Lawyer terms. Which is funny b...
Social....ish?
Today was a district court day. So… I spent several hours in court doing nothing. But then… my life in this job is largely spent doing nothing. But I did enjoy speaking with other humans… a pa...
Feeling
I can’t explain it and it may turn out to be nothing; but I have a strange feeling. Something suggesting that today is going to be a bit different; but I can’t quite place my finger on it.
Peculiar
I am halfway through reading Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. I recently saw an advertisement for the movie on the television. I looked up the film on IMDB.COM. Something strange is a...
Anime Alphabet
This is my “WEEKEND ENTRY” for this weekend. TO hear what has actually been going on; please refer to THIS entry. As is obvious to those who have been reading since September 19; I’ve been doing...
Friday, Friday, Gotta Get Down on Friday
No phone calls, no replies. Humbug. Fittingly, I started my car up this morning and blaring from my radio (as the FM/AM is spotty out here, I have a CD changer on random) was “I got to get out o...
Z: 10/14
And so it comes to the end of the Anime Alphabet.... and I have ZERO representations for Z. Not. A. Single. One. OH to get so far only to fail now!
Wisps
Today already feels like an intangible day of little substance. Didn’t hear from CR Job at all last night. Nothing of any excitement or value last night or this morning. Printed off a bunch of p...

Baited Breath and More
I haven’t felt like this since I was a Sophomore in High School waiting to see if I had made The Baker’s Dozen Elite Acting Troupe. The anticipation; the desperate need for it to be good news; t...

Prayers & Fingers
While it is true that I did not get the best vibe during my interview… I am hoping that my interview spoke to the Firm. And what I’m hoping they heard was: Here’s a kid that wants to work; that ...
Memories
I’m working on an entry in Drafts that attempts to chronologically place some of my stories. I think of it as a kind of “Hello, this is me” introduction piece. Unfortunately, some of the storie...
W: 10/11
(I was trying not to repeat any shows; but she absolutely deserves to be W)
TWITTER: Realization
Something occurred to me today on the way to work: In a small town as The Outsider; you don’t know a whole lot of people outside of your job. And in my job; the only people I interact with regul...
Comparisons
You know what is making today particularly frustrating? I got the opportunity to see how a professional firm runs. Attorneys walking into each other’s offices, meeting clients… assistants and pa...

These Days
(Written Friday/Saturday/Sunday) I find it interesting that today’s court room items happened as I am on my way to Cedar Rapids desperately hoping that I nail this interview. First, everyone was ...
