Terrible Drunk Idea DUAN

Very nice.

How did the man who wrote those outré novels and short story collections end up writing such a thorough examination of boredom, of all things?

Well they are both slaughtered regularly in the first few weeks.

Simple. Wonderful.

Clearly True Lies.

Sometimes I wonder if there are actually any happy lawyers. But I think I'm getting into this for the right reasons (i.e. not to get rich/not to be a politician/because the study of law genuinely interests me) and I have a very nice scholarship from a great school, so loans won't be a killer. Also, the "family…

I'm living at home for a year between undergrad and grad school for the obvious financial benefits (hooray future law school loans!) so I'm kind of in a prison of my own design. It does annoy me, though, that some cable providers seem to include it in their standard packaging; I visited some friends back at college…

I've been looking forward to this all day, but, of course, now is the time that I realize my parents' house doesn't have Fox Soccer Channel.

It was not fun. He liked to say, "One day you'll thank me for showing you what you don't want to do with your life."

"If you're ever going to accept money or credit for something, do it right."

1) Anything/anyone touching my belly button.

I enjoyed being at the SECCG a few years back when we beat Florida. They were so thoroughly defeated that it almost rendered them incapable of causing any sort of trouble. They just seemed more sad than mad.

My roommate in college was a big Padres fan. He also liked saying "raw" as slang for "cool." A few years back, when the Rockies went on that crazy run at the end of the year and beat the Pads, my friend and I got in the habit of calling them the "Rawkies" just to piss him off. This had the desired effect;…
