Victory!
I had my first (mini) victory at work last week. Thanks to the almost brilliantness of my position statement, the charge against my client was dismissed. What's up!!!

MLK
Yesterday was MLK, Jr. Day. Sadly, I did not do much to celebrate. But I will try to live every day of my life in the spirit of what I believe MLK stood for- equality, justice, peace.

Eyes
Eyes are the window to the soul. And for the past two weeks, the windows to my soul have been blurry, inflamed and just not happy. I have iritis, an eye inflammation condition. The doctor doesn't know what caused it; all he knows is that I have a genetic predisposition to it (seriously, I got a test done) and that it wasn't caused by TB or syphyllis (seriously, more tests done). I've had to take three different types of eyedrops at various intervals during the day. I got some good news today though- it's gotten a lot better! Unfortunately, I still have to do the eye drops. Boo. Another appointment next week, and another the week after, and hopefully I'll be all better by then.

My CNN Boyfriend
And now for a few words about my CNN boyfriend, Dr.SanjayGupta. Dr.Sanjay is currently in Haiti, where he is reporting, saving babies, and saving brains. I really heart Dr.Sanjay. He is a neurosurgeon/rockstar/hunky hunky man.

SookieStackhouse
I'm almost done with the SookieStackhouse series. They're trashy and dumb, but man oh man, they are a fun read.

TheRoad
I'm reading TheRoad right now. I read some CormacMcCarthy, and then I read Sookie, cause although his writing and the pictures he paints with words are beautiful, it is so incredibly depressing. But man, what a amazing portrait of a father and son.

SpiceGirls
Today I was at TraderJoe's and a team member was talking to another team member and telling him about this crazy girl she met who knew everything about the Spicegirls, including their stage names, their real names, and who they're dating/married to. It hit a little close to home.
