So much for Workaholics Anonymous and getting used to not being a quasi tenant at the office. Summer hols are done with, the Supreme Court has reopened, and the torture begins. I don’t hate my job, or my profession, but somehow the prospect of turning up for work at 7:30 am for days on end isn’t particularly savoury. Certainly not when you’re supposed to have read about 600-700 pages of badly drafted legalese in the dying hours of the day before. And certainly not when you’ve got to run around in three layers of clothing from 10 in the morning till 3 in the afternoon.
Plus, everyone seems to be unavailable for a drink these days. This sucks. After being a lone drinker for a couple of years, I’ve now gotten used to having some company at the pub, even the irritating sort (hey, you can tell them to STFU). So, a drink is out too. Which, I suppose, is a good thing - saving money and saving my liver.
And no Firefly around with her brilliant tea, her supercommonsensical approach to most things, and her ability to soothe the savage etc. etc. That’s the worst thing to be amiss.
(Yes, I sound pathetically besotted, because I AM pathetically besotted. It has its advantages.)
Why can’t my lord and master take up more out of town litigation, and leave us idiots in peace? Why must he insist on moving the office? It’s really quite nice in this present hole, walking distance from court, dogs in the backyard, ample parking space. Sigh. Why the fuck am I whining so much?

You know what makes that profession all worth it? The darned vacations! I wish I could be a lawyer for at least every June!
D: You mean you wish you could be a litigator lawyer every June :P
You have parking space?!
Nothing pisses me off more than people who don't want to get drunk with me.
coming back from holidays is such a drag.
crowley - hit me up for a midweek drink anytime. im at the IHC most days. it'll be strange but cool.
Per: Yeah, da. Little fight, sometimes, but we usually get enough space to park here.
Rass: Something tells me not too many people turn down a chance to drink with you ;)
Blues: It's worse if you actually didn't go anywhere for your vacations.
Chitgo: Sure thing, doc. My office is pretty close by anyway. We should catch up.
