I grew up watching “Perfect Strangers” on Thursday nights. In this comedy show, Larry chants a weird mantra every time Balky annoys him: “I am a hollow reed, troubles blows through me like the wind *insert sound of wind here*”. It keeps him sane, grounded and in control. I could use a mantra, I could use a double barrel shotgun then run amok and blast the minions to another galaxy. Tsk, I should stop reading True Crime books.

CT: these days i cant help but wish i was back in a time when everything was easier
Hot Shot Lawyer Guy (HSLG): you’re telling me. i wish i was 10 years old all over again
CT: no matter how simple you want things to be, they always find ways to morph themselves into something complicated. i should go back to being 6 years old and never grow up
HSLG: it’s days like these when i realize how great it is to be mentally retarded. so what’s been up with you
CT: i found a song that would keep my nerves calm. its on eternal repeat in my ipod right now. ill probably be mentally retarded before the battery runs out. =) so your job is keeping you busy? no time to have personal problems?
HSLG: everybody has personal problems.=) my job, thankfully, keeps my mind occupied.
CT: i don’t want to have personal problems, i’d like to donate my body to science hehe
HSLG: hahaha. it sounds like you need a good laugh
