Vacation, vacation, vacation, I so need a vacation. Its strange. I started my business officially in May of last year. The first six months, I literally sat behind my desk playing computer solitaire. Now I am so busy, that I work from 7 to 6 six days per week. We get five calls a day from new clients. Each month I set a new month...

I can handle the guilty ones and even the guilty ones who think they are innocent. I handle all of that all the time, and I do it well. Its the utter bullshit that bothers me most. Cut all the bullshit and all of this would be a lot better.

I was just down at the mall and I saw something terribly disturbing. As I was parking the car, I could see in the next parking row ahead of us, a small puppy dog walking between two parked cars. The car right next to where the puppy was walking started up and began rolling back.

The puppy yelped very loudly. The driver got out and...

I got excused from jury duty. Ha! This was tough for me. I really wanted to serve on a jury, but I knew as a lawyer practicing in this small town, that no one would want me. I am also so busy in my private practice that taking time off would have been a real problem. Then to have to sit through the voir dire...

I just got some new running shoes. Thank you RunningShoes.com. It's high time I started my running addiction again. Now that I got my new shoes and my doctor has cleared me to run again, there's really no reason not to get on it.

The cat and the dog are doing well together. No flying fur or loud outbursts. Last night they both slept on...

I adopted a cat from the pound.

I got up took 4 Motrin tablets and went back to bed thinking I was just getting a cold or something. By 8 Am, my elbow was swollen and I was beginning to...

Im absolutely not sure on what to do. I am doing very well in my chosen career. My law practice is accelerating at a rapid pace. I have hired one employee and the sky is the limit right now. Then out of the blue, someone I really respect offers me a job. The new job may not totally detract from my practice entirely, but it...

I need a vacation. Dallas, Chicago, San Francisco, Montreal... where should I go?

Got my car back, rebuilt from the accident. They did $10,900 in repairs. The car had been worth $21.300, so that's why the insurance didn't want to total it out. The car rides differently. Not bad, per se, just different. Time will tell if I'm just imagining things. I also had my third MRI done, this time on my neck. Unlike the other two scans,...

The shoulder isn't in fact getting any better. The doc says my MRI was clear, but wants to now scan my C-spine for a possible blown disc. When will this end? Thanks for your caring comments.
