Confessions of a Litigious Mind

The random, irrelevant musings of a law school graduate.

two turntables and a microphone

things are at a good place. with the exception of finals, which are looming over me like a priest over an altar boy (i couldnt resist), i'm very pleased with how my life is going right now. in general i like law, and am excited to work. i have great friends, and a great family.

a(n) (optimus) prime example is last night. i bullshitted with two friends from undergrad for about 4.5 hours. we talked about everything from milfs to future plans to glory days part 2 (undergrad stories, part 1 being high school). and it was awesome.

but it also got me thinking how funny stuff works out sometimes. for example, i was friendly with these two during undergrad for sure, but we mainly just partied together. we didnt hang out all that much. but now i talk to them consistently and there are plans in the works for the upcoming months. and i wouldnt have it any other way. we have the same interests and senses of humor, and like a lot of the same stuff. one of them does like the yankees, which admittedly is a major fault, but i guess i can overlook that except for 19 days between april and october (not counting postseason). nobody's perfect. except me, of course.

on a side note, i love the dr. pepper commercial i just saw. not only does it play meatloaf in the background, but the guy buys tampons, does yoga, and folds panties. but dont touch his dr. pepper. classic.

i cant say i'm digging this weather lately. it doesnt know if it wants to be 70, or snow. does it want me to keep wearing my man thongs, or long johns? i can't tell!

well, i think i can safely say i have procrastinated long enough. i slept late, at lunch, watched a little home alone, and now i'm blogging. i desperately need to get some stuff done. anything i do this weekend makes thanksgiving that much easier. and i fully intend on enjoying family, friends and food next week. things are very busy, but they're going well.

and that's where it's at.

dicta GET YOUR SHIZ DONE!!!!!! we're going for coffee tonight, no excuses. unless you're dead. in which case, i might have to just put a cup of coffee in your cold dead hands and enjoy a cup myself while in your somber company. don't worry, i'd make sure your cable received its routine maintenance as well, so it doesn't feel neglected. and i'd take care of fido till someone came to get him.

but don't die. just get your work done. DOOOOO ITTTTTTT.

Such a great post. I felt really happy after chatting with you guys too, and I was asking myself "why the hell didn't I hang out with [dicta] in undergrad?!" I think people should be required to wear signs saying how compatible they will be with each other, so we'll know who to talk to right off the bat. That would make life much easier and enjoyable.

npl says hi!

talk to you later :)

sorry dicta, didn't mean to ignore the corpus of your post. i'm really glad that life's treating you like a rock star right now (minus the ginormous paycheck, of course). and i totally hear you. despite all of my griping (mostly about stupid people), i'm on the same page as you - i can't really complain about things (stupid people being the exception, but that's just a hobby of mine). i'm feeling quite fortunate for the way my life has worked itself out so far. life's easier to handle, anyway, when you remember not to take anything too seriously. speaking of which, what did hellen keller do when she fell down a well?







she screamed her hands off.


happy hermiting!
