captainsblogI just had to review a docket on a case I'm working, and there it was. Docket entry 32:
Sheesh. I don't think even Shakespeare intended you to take that icon LITERALLY.
----
Other than that, I'm a little more sentient this morning than I was after court yesterday. The client was enormously happy on at least a moral-victory level (winning the trial does nothing to ensure dime one of actual payment), and I got taken out to lunch at a place on Rochester's west side which is much like several others I knew in that neighborhood in my years there. VERY Italian, VERY down-home, fake wood paneling on the walls of the bar, pasta to die for, framed pictures of the Holy Trinity of the Mafia (the Pope, DiMaggio and Sinatra), and probably more made guys passing by me than I've ever seen at one single time in my entire life.
I noted that to one of my clients and said, I could never join the Mafia. Can't stand the sight of blood.
----
Zoey's still collared, although Eleanor cut it back a bit yesterday so it's not quite as much of a strain on the poor grrl's neck. I'm waiting for Em to get home before heading out this afternoon, just so she's at least semi-supervised all of the time. Despite the stitches and the limitations of the albatross on her (ALBATROSS!), she's still as rambunctious as ever (ALBATROSS!) but, if anything, even cuter and cuddlier when she's having her downtime (ALBATROSS!).
