Don't Worry, Be Happy
In the morning drive to the jail. Go in for a consultation. Drive home. In the afternoon drive back to the courthouse. Go in for a hearing. Drive home. Do the laundry. At night watch “All Quiet on the Western Front” (2022).
Wake up and my leg still hurts. Outside there is a snowstorm raging. Limp to get an acupuncture treatment. Leg feels a little better. At night watch “Top Gun: Maverick” (2022).
Wake up and my leg still hurts. Manage to go to the courthouse in the afternoon for a hearing. Tough that out. At night watch: “Everything Everywhere All at Once” (2022).
In the morning drive to the courthouse for jury trial. Case gets dismissed. Drive home. Eat lunch. Drive back to the courthouse. On the way up the stairs in the parking garage something pops in my right leg. It is fucked up. Limp to the Safety Building. Do my hearing. Limp back to my car. Drive home. Limp to my couch. This sucks.
In the morning drive to Capitol Drive and Calhoun Road. Walk way over 8 hours until it gets dark. Walk way too much. Really way too much.
In the morning walk to the office. Work on several things. Prepare for jury trial on Monday. In the afternoon walk down to the lakefront. Walk north to UW-Milwaukee. Walk south on Oakland Avenue. Somebody tossed a chair out as garbage. Walk home.
In the morning drive to the Waukesha County Jail. Go in for a consultation. Drive home. My iPad won’t start back up. Take it to the Apple Store at Mayfair Mall. Guy there gets it rebooted in under a minute. Walk over to Macy’s and buy a new suit. Drive back home.
In the morning drive to the jail. Go in for consultations. Drive home. Lay on the couch with a headache and watch superhero cartooons. In the afternoon drive to the courthouse. Go in for hearings. Drive home. Lay on the couch and watch “Norma Rae” (1979). Go to bed early.
In the morning drive to the courthouse to start up the jury trial again. Client changes course and takes a plea bargain. It is a very good deal. Run around other courts to make appearances now that the trial is not going. In the afternoon walk to the office to work for a while. Walk down to the lakefront. See geese toiling away for sustenance at twilight. Walk home.
In the morning drive to the courthouse. Sit around for three hours waiting to see if my case is going to trial. In the afternoon start picking a jury. Long day. Drive home.
