  1. There's a way around Ellen's little contract. If she weren't such a child, I wouldn't have to take matters into my own hands.
  2. Only one more session with Dr. Baldwin. Cannot wait until this nonsense is behind me.
  3. Ellen is an absolute fool.
  4. Meeting Jerry Boorman soon. Need to make him feel safe enough to turn on Erickson. It's tough squaring off with a liar as good as I am.
  5. I know it's Ellen's case but I must admit...I enjoyed deposing Howard Erickson. He's one of the smuggest CEO's I've ever faced.
  6. Found my next case. Suing the City of New York to establish a dress code at the W. Caribbean Day Parade. Cover those asses, people!
  7. "I got a healthy operation here, and I didn't build it brooding on the right and wrong of things." - Al Swearengen. I miss that show.
  8. Pilates is a very satisfying workout. But today, boxing's the only thing that does the trick. Punching something brings me joy.
  9. I still don't think he's all that bright. But I have to admit, Dr. Baldwin is growing on me. Still can't wait to end therapy, though.
  10. My next case may be against traffic cameras used to issue moving violations. One of the most annoying, intrusive inventions EVER!
  11. Thankfully I kept up my French after college. You never know when it'll come in handy on a case. Or when buying wine.
  12. Not when it's full of bourbon. Then it's usually completely empty because I drank it. @PatBateman_ glass is ALWAYS half empty, isn't it??
  13. Been thinking about Jerry Boorman. Struck me as a mediocre spy. Who knows -- in another life I could've been a fantastic CIA agent.
  14. A few days ago I said my granddaughter's new nanny was the most competent person I know. I take it back. I don't know any competent people.
  15. It's nice having Bill Herndon around as a sounding board. But I could really use Tom. Been thinking about him a lot lately.
  16. Haven't seen this many whiners since I taught a legal seminar in '95. It was a minor tremor, not the Northridge quake. Get back to work.
  17. I knew my son was willful and contemptuous of authority. But I never thought he was delusional. He has no chance against me.
  18. I feel as if I'm being watched. It's not a feeling I have often and I can't stand it.
  19. A firm full of Ivy League grads and the most competent person I know is Angel, my granddaughter's nanny. Higher ed needs a serious revamp.
  20. The Feds grab Nasim right in the middle of our deposition. Clearly, Erickson has them in his back pocket. Ellen should have expected it.
