Listyle: Dumb Sh*t I think
1. I often see this particular dude on my walk to the office. The reason I remember him is because his head is too small. It’s not obviously too small. It’s a subtle smallness. Like, his noggin is in the 35th percentile for people of his height and for some reason, I’ve noticed it.
2. My midlife crisis might be upon me. Probably not. But today, I found myself suddenly regretful that I’d never surfed inside a large wave. It might have been because I was watching cartoons and everyone in it was surfing.
3. I bought a new laptop bag from Briggs & Riley. It smells like a new car to me. I like it. I wonder if that makes me a little bit of a douchey-attorney.
4. At the gym this morning, I found myself looking around and wondering just how much sweat was in the carpet and how often it’s cleaned.
5. My neighbor punched me today. In the arm, mind you. I ran into her at the park and Little Filthy was running around, playing with her dog. You…may have noticed that Little Filthy is slightly wall-eyed. He’s part pug. They always seem to have some sort of Peter Falk wandering eye thing going on. Little Filthy ran up to me and I said, “What’s up, Mad Eye Moody?” And she socked me in the arm and yelled, “Hey!” This is probably because while Little Filthy is slightly wall-eyed, her pug looks a little like the sides of his face are running away from each other.

Just a random attorney writing about daily life with Little Filthy, my rotten dog.

Just dropping by to say that Little Filthy is fugglier than pug-ugly. ;-p

Ha! He fantastically pugly, isn’t he? Little beast. Think I’ll go give him a belly rub and then head to work!

Uh, if your midlife crisis is upon you, then it’s upon me. I’m way too immature for that.

Also, forgot to mention, they now have a pill that can give you the EXACT same sensation you would get from surfing inside a huge wave. Works best if taken on Saturday mornings. More cartoon exposure.

@dysfunction junction – Well, I figure I’ve got a good 14 years or so before I have a legitimate midlife crisis. It just makes a handy excuse when I get the sudden desire to do something crazy. I started planning a shark dive for next summer last week.
@CMC – I think I know what I’ll be doing tomorrow morning.

I’m thinking that if someone punches me, even on the arm, then regardless of who it is I just return the favor 10-fold.
Of course, I may have just been watching “Dumb & Dumber” too many times…

@CBG – *laugh* I’m laughing because I can picture my neighbor (a petite blonde) socking you in the arm jokingly and you hauling off and belting her. heh.
