Legally, I had nothing to do with the shooting of the sherrif

Hahaha!

The judge totally dismissed my case, so I'm off scot-free without a blemish on my record! I liked that judge. He was fair (okay, I say that *after* having gotten my case dismissed) and he bent this one lawyer over a chair for not wearing a coat and tie to court.

Judge: You goin' golfin', sir?

Lawyer: Well, I was golfing your honor. I didn't know I was going to get called in. I just now found out about this case.

Judge: Well, throw a jacket in your car.

Lawyer: I'm sorry your honor, I didn't know I'd be here in court.

Judge: That's why you throw a jacket in your car. (laughs).

Rich people pay lawyers to go to traffic court for them. Which is very entertaining. It was like a bad lawyer joke being acted out in front of me. Like a joke where someone says, "So these twelve lawyers were in traffic court one day. And the first one's name is called and he goes up and says, 'Morning your honor, may I approach' and the Judge says yes" and repeat that twelve times joke style and that was how it went.

So I got off! Yay for me!

And besides having a grinding toothache, Friday was good. And since my parents and grandparents are up in Tallahassee seeing my sister, that means I get the house/dogs/diet cokes all to myself.

It's like the Bad Wolf thing, only not so bad and wolf-y.

I have now had two separate people mention the novel "Illusion" by Paula Volsky. Which I thought I was the only person on Earth to read, but I see someone with an icon of it and then affinity8 asked about it in her journal.

That's so weird. I think the word for it is "synchronicity".

I think.
