New shoes

Because it’s Friday, and because I got the remaining items I’d ordered in the mail a couple of days ago, I am happy. I have nice new shoes that don’t have scuffed heels or toes, and I’m wearing a freshly dry-cleaned sweater with my nice new skirt that is long enough, and everything matches!! [...]

I know it’s not that critical to life as I know it, but doggone it, why haven’t the dishwasher installation guys called? They’re supposed to call to schedule the installation of my new dishwasher (since I am ready to tear the old one out of the kitchen with my bare hands and strew its pieces [...]
Reconciliation

A 41-year-old woman goes into a Magnolia’s Mystery* store in her local mall. She selects a few items, heads toward the dressing room and almost walks into a man coming out of the dressing room area.
“What is that man doing in the dressing rooms?” she asks a saleswoman.
“Oh, don’t mind him,” the saleswoman says calmly. [...]

If you’ve ever been a waiter or waitress, you learned how to carry stuff on a tray. The trick to not dumping the entire thing on the floor is to focus on your destination – not your feet, or the stuff on the tray, or people around you.
As I was driving back from Flint [...]

Aaahhh, the arrogance of perspective.
One of the current catch-phrases of the practice of law is that we are to maintain civility – hard to accomplish in advocacy at times, but that’s the goal. It isn’t a legal obligation – which is probably just as well since it can be difficult to legislate nuance – [...]

Work is a four-letter word for a reason.
I talked to someone yesterday who very candidly told me that he worked because he could make money doing it. He doesn’t really like his job, although he doesn’t hate it. What he most enjoys about it is that his kids work with him in his business, so [...]

Sorry for the absence – I’ve been sick again, and when I’m sick, I make less sense than usual.
As a result, I am going to post a few air pilot jokes my sister sent me this morning – enjoy!!
