Below zero outside as I wake up. I curse winter. Go to Sam’s Club to get soda, water and some other supplies. Go to Target to get a new bathroom floor mat. The current one is fraying into little pieces bit by bit. Clean the house while watching “Gotham”. Do a water change on the fish tank while watching more “Gotham”. Put the Buddha statute that Emmet and Elise got me for Christmas in the fish tank. The fish are a little bit thrown off by it.
Kristine and a cupcake at the Courthouse
Brutally cold today. Go to the courthouse in the morning for a couple of quick hearings. Go to the jail for consultations. Go home for lunch. Talk to Kristine. Nice call. She is sweet. Puts me in a good mood. Go back to the Safety Building for two hearings. There are snacks are leftover from a holiday party in the courtroom. Eat a cupcake and three Hershey Kisses. Go to Orange Theory in the late afternoon.
Walk to MSDF
Go to the jail for consultations. Walk to MSDF for a consultation. Drive out to the House of Correction for a consultation. The car engine sounds funny. I am worried.
Still snowing
Go to the Safety Building in the morning to resume jury trial. It is a snowy ride to court. Case settles. Texting with LaTia more frequently. Walk over to Municipal court to handle a traffic ticket. Ride the Hop to the office and get some paperwork done. Make phone calls. Go home. Go to Orange Theory.
Dark and Cold and Snow and Jury Trail too
188.1 pounds. Still sore and tired from my 50,000 step Fitbit odyssey on Sunday. Go to court for a sentencing hearing in the morning. It is adjourned again. Go to the courthouse cafeteria for lunch and have tacos. I am suprised that they are actually decent. Go to the Safety Building in the afternoon for jury selection. Leave the courthouse as the dark and cold and snow envelopes the city. Hope my body is ready for the battle again in the morning.
Martin Luther King Day
Get a haircut. Go grocery shopping. Listen to the Bucks beat up on the Dallas Mavericks. Cancel Orange Theory. Go to bed early.
Over 50,000 steps on Fitbit

Snow all night and all day
It snowed all night. It snowed all day. Walk up St. Paul Avenue to 13th Street. Walk across the Marquette campus. Walk down to the Fiserv Forum. Stop at Best Fish to get Brine Shrimp for the fish’s dinner. Walk up Canal Street to 25th Street. Walk back down to the Third Ward. Check out the ice sculptures at Benelux and the Wicked Hop. Walk to Jing’s to get Chinese food to go.
Ennui

Tired on Thursday
Go to the Safety Building for a motion hearing. Go to the courthouse for a preliminary hearing. Telephone consultation with a client away at prison. Tired today.
