Still home, more out of abundance of caution than real need.  Last night's sleep went much better, and today's, um, output has been much more controlled. I start back in with appointments tomorrow, and think I'll be up to them.  Only one of them is court; Thursday, I need to take Ebony to the vet because somehow Dum-Dum owner let her rabies lapse and I need that before I can relicense her (or, um, take her to a dog park:P).  Then Friday's day out consists of a committee meeting here, then a late day in Rochester- partly to deal with craziness from client past, and probably to bring some stuff out to Emily and Cameron.


----

Most of today, I've been working on one judgment.  Amazing, what people put out about themselves on the internet.  I filed it against a guy just last month; I'd asked the client for any information that would help collect it, but googling his name got me straight to his Linkedin profile- which shows, among other things, that he runs a sports memorabilia business, one that was totally unrelated to the work my client did for him.

I've already prepared the papers in which, in so many words, I threaten to take away his baseball cards.

We both stayed home after long days yesterday, and have no plans to be out tonight, but I suppose we should celebrate cause it's my wife's special day:



The term itself is a Firesign Theater reference, but apparently there's also a punk band with that name which is where the image comes from.

----

And then the day will end with my annual intellectual butt-kicking:  the Jeopardy online contestant test goes live at 9:00 eastern.  Most years, I've either forgotten to check, or signed up and sucked.  The last one, I thought was reasonably decent, but I never got a callback.  Maybe the 20th time is the charm- or maybe Trebek's just scared of me.  Wussy Canadian.

Or perhaps Alex Trebek, even being the secret ruler of the world*, can't get past that wall we're building, with American money, to keep the Americans out.

He's got nothing to worry about with me. I scheduled a reminder an hour before the 9 pm test time tonight, went to log in 45 minutes early, and found that the start time was 8 pm tonight.

I can still do 9 tomorrow night, but that's during the Mets game, so I'll either have real good or real bad karma.
