Computer is near death So full of viruses even I physically feel ill. I’ve had it since I started law school, so that’s nearly six years, man. Which is like 94 in computer years. But it’s backed up on an external HD and I’m almost ready to GO INTO EVEN MORE DEBT and procure a new computer. Which will be a Mac this time, screw you PCs. I’m done with you.

I remember this one time, my sister and I were supposed to do a duet in this wedding. But she and I live in different states, and weren’t going to see each other until about 2 days before the wedding, so we wouldn’t get a chance to rehearse the song. So about a month before, we were talking on the phone about it while I was driving one day, and we thought it might help if we tried to...

What this doesn’t tell you is that Lochte’s two world records in two days are the first and only individual world records set since FINA (the international swimming governing body) banned polyurethane and rubber swimming suits a year and a half ago. In the...

(And, WARNING: dear many tumblr friends who are not judgmental about people’s life choices and are not bitter and angry at life and the unfairness thereof, please avert your eyes, because, as much as I know you will be furious at me for not respecting the choices and decisions of the people who I am about to mock, I am even less in the mood to hear about how I have no right to judge...
