Now you're back
From outer space
And I walked in to find you here with that look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had know for just one second you'd be back to bother me
Now go
Walk out the door
Just turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
You think I'd crumble
You think I'd lay down and die
Oh, no not I
I will survive!
For as long as I know how to love I know I'll be alive
I've got all mjy life to live
I've got all my love to give
I'll survive
I will survive
HEY HEY!

The man who has plenty of good peanuts,
and gives his neighbour none.
He won't have any of my peanuts
when his peanuts are gone!
When his peanuts are gone - when his peanuts are gone.
He won't have any of my peanuts
when his peanuts are gone!


NUTS!

Am I the only one who hears the screams, and the strangled cries, of lawyers in love?

Fine. Fuck you all.

I drove around several blocks because I didn't want this guy to know where I lived. So I went to a 7-11 where there was an interesting/scary conversation in the parking lot. So I went inside when he started freaking me out. Sometimes "go away" just doesn't work.
This was such a non-story. When you tell a story, have a point. You're like a Chatty Kathy doll.

I'm not a lawyer, but I figured I should post this here to get some reactions from lawyers, since I was dating one for awhile and I wanted to know if this is normal for you guys.

So, I'm dating this lawyer chick. She's all wound up, man. I'm a pretty laid back guy and I dig her, but she's kind of intense, you know? Here is an example. I have this modest lunchbox collection. You know, nothing special, just a few boxes I bought that reminded me of my childhood. Something fun.

This chick seizes on it like it is my life, man. I mean she is on a mission to collect every lunchbox that has ever been produced, buying me lunchboxes like crazy all the time. I mean, how about a nice, new shiny carabiner or something for my birthday? Not a chance. Now I store my boxers in an A-Team lunchbox and my flour in a Casper box. I'm not even going to say what I keep in the mint Leave it to Beaver lunchbox.

And if it isn't lunchboxes, it's fucking horses. I like horses. They seem cool enough. I even went to a Dude Ranch once. But if I have to hear one more word about horses, man, I'm going to flip right the fuck out. Saddles. Bits. Brushes. Who cares, man? I mean, I like sniffing glue as much as the next guy, but that's about as close as I get to horsies as an adult.

Plus, she's a little nutty. She throws me this big party, which is cool, I must admit. But then she flips out because I don't go and pick up my own cake. Then she gets all self-righteous on me and reminds me over and over again that she is doing all of this for me and I should appreciate it. I would have preferred a cupcake and a candle with just the two of us, man. But she has to make a big thing out of it and then gets all worked up. Now I have to pull out the extra lunchbox seats for these guests and pick up a cake and shit. She has three cars, man. Use one and get the cake. I'll be over here drinking beer out of my Dukes of Hazzard lunchbox.

So, I need a break. I mean a serious break. I decide to get as far away from her physically and mentally as possible for awhile without visiting the moon, you know? Everest. She could not possibly bother me when I'm up there man. I don't even like climbing, but I am seriously looking forward to this and I figure I am qualified because I am already climbing the walls, dude.

While I'm up there, my mind is clear, man. I mean, I can see clearly now and I don't have someone yapping and complaining in my ear about this and that. "I'm so cute." "You really should appreciate all I do for you." "Pick this up." "Put that down." "Hand me that saddle." "Put this lunchbox with the rest." None of that. And she is not even that cute, dude.

So, when I get back, I think maybe things will be better. Maybe she'll stop being so controlling, you know? I test out my theory by saying I would like to see some of my friends, who I have missed while I was away. No big deal, right? We're just going to play golf. Well, it interferes with something she already planned (not the homecoming party she planned for me and 100 of her friends), so she flips out. Plus, it looks like she gained a few while I was gone (four pounds, my ass).

So she wants to break up with me? Ain't that a bitch, man? Telling me I'm selfish for spending money to do something very few people in the world can say they have done. I could have been feeding orphans or something with that money. Is she joking, dude? She has three cars and 36 horses. Does she post here? Has she mentioned how much her saddles cost?

But I am out. Free. Gone. Life is good. At least I think so until
I go to the drawer to burn that bitch's passport. (Why she keeps it here to begin with, I will never know.) Of course, it's gone. Seems she snuck into my house, like a lunatic and took it. But at least she returned the key. I wonder how many copies she has.

Is this normal for lawyer chicks? I like your income, but are you all as batshit crazy as this? I need to know because I'm going out on a date with this paigow girl and I think she's a lawyer too.

Thanks in advance.

Is it just me, or do you think Thurgreed spent an awful lot of energy on this for someone who doesn't like me? I think he's got a crush on me.

Excuse me, but "proactive" and "paradigm"? Aren't these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I'm accusing you of anything like that.

Drive to the fucking police station. Or fire station.

Aren't you an expert sports car driver? This was the perfect time to put the overcompensatingmobile to use! Christ, I actually drove my SUV offroad (and through a river, which I don't recommend) when I owned one.

But at least you had fun up until then, didn't you?

There were scores of huge parties that got cancelled that night. Like, biggest parties of your life type things. Not to mention the huge party in the Space Needle that some poor schmuck had to pay several hundred thousand dollars even though there was no party.
You are a bizarre person if you are still holding onto disappointment over not going to once-in-a-lifetime Y2k parties. Like any New Year's party is ever as fun as it was billed to be.

Here's a guess: the parties would have been too crowded, you would have had to wait in long lines for the too few bars and then waitstaff would have handed out glasses of cheap champagne around 11:50. you'd be stuck in a 20 woman-deep line for the restroom when the ball dropped. and the fireworks would have been mainly duds anyway. then you would have driven home drunk and been lucky not to get caught in one of the infamous New Year's sobriety check-points. later you'd have some sloppy drunk New Year's sex with the Mr. and fallen asleep without feeling particularly fulfilled. the next day you would rave to your girlfriends about how you were at the party of a lifetime and how amazing the entire night was. magical really. and by now you would have forgotten the details of the actual night and made up some fairytale of wonderfulness that you whip out during cocktail conversation because you think that anyone gives a flying fuck how you celebrated y2k.

Yeah, I guess you really did need one of those big parties. I'm sorry you will have to die unfulfilled now. Sad.

Oh, and another thing Thurgreed, if you're gonna try and do a character piece, you should at least know the character...he's been around horses longer than I have and gave me a list of lunchboxes he wanted me to locate while he was gone and asked me to throw the party and barked out details of it when he called from the mountain. But you can make up shit you don't know, if it makes you happy honey...whatever makes you feel better about your fucking shit ass life.

No he shouldn't. His fictional creation is much more interesting than your real life.

Is it really a good idea to drive to the police station when you've been drinking for hours?
