Really? Again?
Another work day. But all of my hearings were continued until March. So another work day where I’m kind of sitting around thinking, “Huh. Okay then.” One of the big (important) reasons to (1)...
A Familiar Place and Other Tales
So… last night a familiar feeling came back. Rage without reason. This typically signals something is coming that is increasing my pain. Considering the weather reports, it should be obvious to ...
Absalom
Today really will be talking to the void. I have one phone call to return today… a woman is furious with her ex-husband who she is certain molested her daughters when they were minors. However,...
Some Extra Words for Today
To start with 2 small political items: (1) I understand that there are people in this world that don’t understand nuance or tact or historical truth. I get that. But I don’t have to like it. I ...
Minday
Loads to say today. Not going to be much time to say it. First and foremost, today should be a very busy day indeed. This is certainly not helped by the fact that my computer is acting wonky. ...
Openly Political, Americans
Often times, I hide my little political rants or asides into my genuine entries. HERE, that’s the one I did today. But this just came across the A.P. Wire and I’m… just… more flummoxed than usu...
Friday, Gotta Get Down On
Well… last night was interesting in some ways. Wife came to the office as we are going to try to get our licenses updated. However, the DL office had significant computer errors and had to close ...
Second Thursday
Well, how’s this for a work day. My professional calendar is empty. My personal calendar is empty. Anything that I could plan for today has been accomplished. Everything that I had planned for to...
Well shit
Got home last night and was greeted by a bubbly huggy wife. Which would normally be okay but I know she’s not had access to her medication recently as it is on back order, so that was concerning...
Recaps and Surprises
Yesterday was busy! After the morning of freaking out, preparing, and planning… I had the afternoon of hearings and arguments and such. After work, it was Working Out (which killed my arms) and...
Day 7
I worked over the weekend because I want to nail this bloody hearing. Got in to work and immediately started tackling the hearing prep. E-Mailed the State’s 1 Witness. Pretty sure we won’t hav...
A Moment
On Saturday and Sunday I wrote (or started to write) a specific entry. Monday morning, I pulled up Prosebox and the entry was still there in New Entry. I figured, “Awesome. I’ll work on this wh...
Gah
So… herein we discover the fundamental flaw of me. I don’t mind trial. I don’t mind hearings. I don’t mind motions. But my lack of experience in the “deep weeds” of the law sends anxiety thro...
Araw Tatlo
Positives and Negatives At work last night, my boss recommended I check out a case that the State (we’re county, so they’re like our Big Brother) is filing on for inspiration for my Resistance. ...
A Bit of Fluff
Saw this on Abstract Sunflower’s page (ala Front Page) and decided to do a version of my own. Not to say “fill out the survey for myself” but “fundamentally alter elements of the survey”. Parti...
The Second Day
The second day of 2019 dawns. It has not yet been Chinese New Year (that happens on February 5th), but when that dawns it will be the Year of the Pig. 2018 was the Year of the Dog. So, arguabl...
New Year
So, what were last years “Goals,” or “Resolutions,” or “Dragons”, or “Hopes?” 2018: https://www.prosebox.net/entry/652151/ (1) I want to get under 200 lbs (2) We need to work on our marriage (3) ...
Book Description
This will now be my sixth year writing in Prosebox. I started as a Law Student considering Divorce… and now I’m a Government Attorney who owns a house going to marriage counseling. After 6 consecutive years of “Looking for something new or better” this year, I’m just trying to hold on to what I’ve got. I like my job. I like my community. I like my house. I’m just trying to hold on to all of it and make sure I keep things going.
