Wrong Side
I woke up today in a foul mood. I’ve been living in this body long enough to know what that means but I don’t know how to fix it. What it means is that my Rage Defense is active. My body is in...
Updates & Such
Col’ blimey this morning was a bit of a jolt. 5 am wake up to get dressed and race to the car. 3 hour drive straight east with a few stop offs for gas, breakfast, and stretching the legs. 45 mi...
Interesting Development
So… I try to be a tactful person. I would rarely, if ever, tell someone to their face “I HATE YOU, YOU SCUM SUCKING LABIAL FART!” I mean… I would say that… but I have to get pushed a lot to get...
Yeah
Harumph, Gr, and Poopy. (1) My big, expensive, making the firm money case… took a plea offer. NOW… in pursuit of justice, this is a good thing. The guy definitely hit his wife and choked her. ...
What Do You Expect
So… an Ames Day… with no clients… and Chinese Boss told me that, on Legal Aid time, I was not to do any other work. So… Legal Aid time… I’m not to read/respond to e-mails about other cases. I’m...
Just Speaking At The Void
Today is an Ames Day. And my work calendar is mostly empty… despite asking my bosses for extra work. And my body is stiff and sore and hurts all over. And I am super tired.... especially consi...
Keep the Billows Smooth and Bright
Good morning, Good Afternoon, Good Evening, welcome welcome welcome. “The time has come,” the Walrus said, “to speak of many things. Of shoes and ships and sealing wax. Of cabbages and kings. An...
Lets Complicate Things
“Making the simple complicated is commonplace; making the complicated simple, awesomely simple, that’s creativity.” - Charles Mingus Charles Mingus was an American jazz double bassist, pianist, c...
Random
One thing that excites me in a dark way about the possibility of leaving this position? Perhaps I can flee my rising racism. Part of me would argue that it isn’t racism, it is understanding and...
Just Like Shoes
“And as a personal favor… I want you to go rape a turtle.” The weird things that pop into my head when I just let my mind wander!! I don’t know how best to format this entry. I have a story, an ...
Wednesday
(1) White boss seemed… jovial. Though, Chinese Boss is out of town today so that may be why. :shakes head: See… they can be all over the state without communicating any of that to me. But I...
Waiting for the Shoe to Drop
Maybe this is me reading too deeply into things. Maybe this is me knowing my bosses too well. Maybe I’m just expecting the absolute worst. I sent my bosses a message that read (1) Case Requires P...
Now
Now that I’ve scheduled my interview, spoken with my parents, and told my bosses “I need the morning off next Thursday. I’m not telling you why. If you don’t like it, piss off.” I’m actually a...
So Sue Me
I’m in Ames today. Another pain day, which is worrying. But it underlines a much more important issue. At my current Private Firm… a pain day, which slows my mind and body, is inexcusable and ...
SEEKING ADVICE
One of the County Attorney positions I applied to called me back. This one? Far East Iowa. On the Mississippi River. Putting me 2.5 hours away from my family. Putting us 2 hours away from Wife’...
Grit Your Teeth, Son
Today is rough. It took me a solid hour to get out of bed. Leg pain. As I was in the car, I started to feel… almost out of body. A true sign that my pain sensors are being overloaded. As I sit ...
Twitter-Like: Sex
1 The two sexiest phrases in the English Language? (1) I want you. (need, desire, etc) (2) Cum in me. (maybe that’s just me) 2 I have now taken to the idea that my weight is similar to my wife’...
As We Enter The Difficult Season
I hope everyone had an excellent Thanksgiving! At least… if you’re in the States. I know that is a rather ethno-centric comment considering an international audience. But, of course, this time ...
Fixing Stupid
I know you can’t fix stupid. I know it is frustrating to try. I know that the very attempt of fixing stupid can be a futile exercise in failure. One of the things I didn’t mind about being a ...
Not Your Usual
I’ve been quiet lately as prep for the Holidays has been intense. I’m doing the Mashed Potatoes this year for 11 people and my in laws are staying with us. Plus Wife’s holiday hours have kicked...
Almost Got Away
Today was a busy day! Suppression motion… Prosecutor caved. Another case dismissed. Asylum Case… I really want to help this kid. He 100% deserves asylum. But I know how fucked up our current g...
STEALTH TWITTER & Entry
11.15.2017.1600 One thing I really hate about getting E-Mail alerts about Job Searching is that… the jobs are repeating. A LOT. A LOT A LOT. And if I applied, or didn’t apply, there was a reas...
Perhaps
You won’t admit you love me And so how am I ever to know? You only tell me Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps A million times I ask you And then I ask you over again You only answer Perhaps, perhaps, perh...
Mas Quejumbroso
The loud, fighting moments… The soft, boring moments… I can honestly say with no remorse that there is not a single thing that I like about this job. We all knew that already. That isn’t a power...
Obviously
So… what with my bosses being who they are… I now have to account for my billing by “exact schedule”. Which means instead of saying “Drafted Contract: 0.6 hours” I have to write “8:00-8:06… chec...
Book Description
