I don’t have much to report today on a post. My judge took today and tomorrow off to give himself a 5-day weekend (Monday’s a holiday) to help his son with some huge school project. I think that’s very sweet. I’m in a courtroom with one of my favorite judges doing a criminal trial. He’s easy-going and the pace of the trial is comfortable. I tried to check my gmail but I keep getting a blank white screen instead of my inbox. It’s been like that for 2 days. I complained about it to Mr. W, whose solution was for me to just check my email from home, and then I told him I have no internet access at home cuz my modem or DSL and/or router aren’t working. So he insisted on coming over after work to fix my computer. I’m so excited about that, he hardly ever comes over. If he doesn’t stay long, which he says he wouldn’t, then I guess I’ll be catching jujitsu tonite. They gave me a little bit of a hard time for not going Monday and Tuesday, cuz they all know that my cruise was only last week. But Monday was a holiday and Tuesday was Vday, so what’d they expect?
It’s nice to have a placid and well-paced day, actually. Yesterday, I was so bored that I drove myself crazy and miserable.
Woohoo, it’s 2:17pm and the judge is recessing the trial for the day because the defense ran out of witnesses for today.
For those of you who aren’t “Friends” fanatics, the title of the post refers to an episode of “Friends” in which Joey asks Chandler to hook him up with one of Chandler’s film producer friends for a movie audition. Joey wants the audition on Thursday. “Look, if you can’t remember Thursday, this’ll help you. Just remember, Thursday: the third day.” Chandler looked puzzled, like how is Thursday the 3rd day? Joey continues by counting on his fingers. “Monday: one day, Tuesday: two day, Wednesday: when? huh?, THURSDAY: the THIRD DAY.” This Thursday really is like my 3rd day since Monday was an idle day when I just unpacked, watched a lot of TV, ran 3 miles, then went to meet up with college roommie Diana for dinner.
