What is even happening?

Before and even during college, I had always thought I might go to law school one day. Then I took Business Law. I liked it and did well, but the prof was a young-ish lawyer, who told us what the life of a baby lawyer was like, and I knew I didn't have the stick-to-it-ive-ness required.

In other news, apparently it's my 10th Twitter anniversary. It's not really though. I first joined Twitter with another account in June 2007, when Jessica was going to use this weird, new, micro-blog thing while in labor.

We're all so grown up now, Buffistas.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

And now, for those who are still following: there is an official announcement that the final results of the Israeli elections will be published by April 17th. Yes, Netanyahu is and will still be the PM, and all in all things will look about the same, but there was an error in one of the programs that are doing the math and someone entered the wrong numbers somewhere in the process so they're doing a re-count of some polling stations (in addition to a recount of ~30 polling stations with really weird numbers in them). This is stressing for parties that are just around the threshold (3.25%) and their voters. It may also add or subtract a member of some parties.

With this happy note, I'm thrilled about my decision of having the Seder this year (April 19th) with friends.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm sorry, Shir. We have seen reports of voting issues reported here too. It can't help if people don't have confidence in their votes actually being counted on top of the disappointing results. Ugh. Yes, Seder with friends is a very good plan.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Slept until 10:15, bitches!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Woohoo!!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I got a referral from my doctor for a doc who specializes in identifying and diagnosing ADD/ADHD in adults, but I lost it. Classic.

This is the part of the show where the godlike creature re-appears to tell you that was the real test all along.

I've been procrastinating getting an ADHD evaluation for...ever?

That does make narrative sense, yes.

Gah, I haven't done my taxes and I don't know when I will. I am stupid busy this weekend. I know it won't take long once I do it, but I probably have to dins some documents. Bah.
