The Writing on the Wall

Dude, now I know why Miss Doxie sadly only posts her hilarious stories every couple weeks. Being a lawyer is HARD, man. And I'm not even a real one yet!

It's 11 o'clock, and I just got home a few minutes ago. I worked both days last weekend. And yet for all this work? I have nothing interesting to tell you! And even if something interesting did happen, goodness knows I wouldn't have anything interesting to WRITE about it. That would require thoughts beyond, "When can I go home and have a beer? Or eight?"

While I am whining, can I tell you my A/C is still out? This cuts seriously into my ability to skip showering and roll into work in my awful wool pants circa 1999, a button-down I've worn two times this week already and my hair in a ponytail.

One more: the bottom half of my left shin keeps going numb. Do you think I am dying? I'm pretty sure I am. I bet in heaven you don't have to calculate total percentage ownership of shared dispositive stocks.

Meh.

Beer.

just wait until the 11th! there will be so much beer and giants baseball we won't be able to handle it. maybe we'll take the bullpen hostage while we're at it!

a numb left shin? if it was me, i'd be thinking "it's probably leukemia. or maybe hodgkins." is that the way your mind works too? :)

work has sucked way more than normal this summer, i think they're all out to get us.

I HOPE YOU HAVE SOME BEER THIS WEEKEND> In the quest to defatten my ass, I probably won't be. But I'll definitely be thinking/dreaming about having some.

Dude, that's some serious MS Paint talent you got there, Jenny. I mean, that spray paint looks, like, totally painty.

Just think. Soon you'll be back in classes, lugging around books that weigh a ton. That didn't help? Hmmm. Have some more beer.

Maybe it's all the beer that is making your shin numb...

Circulation issues for the shin perhaps. Doubt you're dying - better not be, the undies would never update then... and you should know, I love updated undies. Ooh yeah.

You too with the shin numbness thingy? I've been feeling that (or rather not feeling that) lately too, except it seems to be more in the top-of-my-shin slightly-below-the-knee place. Hmm, if you figure out what it is, will you let me know? I was thinking it's probably bone cancer or I got bit by some tropical disease carrying mosquito here in Hollywood and said disease is slowly killing off muscle cells, one appendage at a time. Or maybe I'm overreacting just a tad. We'll wait and see if any vital organs are affected before calling up the doctor.

I was having ll sorts of leg pain and numbness. The Dr. told me to give up flip flops. Bastard.

I doubt you're dying. But then again, I can't even begin to imagine what "shared dispositive stocks" means.

Penny, I am so excited for the game and to make googly eyes at young hot pitchers!

Carolyn? NO BEER? I would totally give up food before beer. Besides, I've seen you, you look great!

Jeff, dude, who do you think I am? I did that in PHOTOSHOP, man, not MS Paint! Can't you tell? No?

Dagny, sadly, I am looking forward to the exercise of carrying around books.

Jenna, hmm, I hadn't thought of that! Perhaps you are right. I hope not, though. Life would be sad if I had to give up beer to have feeling shins.

Daniel, updated undies, ha! This next one is for you, then.

Lori, whatever you do, DO NOT go on WebMD. At least not until the heat passes and we are all more rational beings. Otherwise, it will be an embarassing call to your MD.

Crystal, flip-flops, NOOOO! I am going to pretend I never read that. Altho, really, I have been wearing them a lot lately. Hmmm.

Chris, I don't know what it means either. Sadly. But it's scary sounding, right? I can't believe that's what I'm going to be doing for a living. Freaks ME OUT.
