There definitely needs to be more coffee.

Dear gods this day started way too early. I have a motion that I need to file today, before noon as I have an afternoon court hearing, and last night I just ran out of steam sometime after midnight. So I was up again this morning before 6 to finish it. There really isn't enough coffee in the world to make me feel awake enough to deal with this day. *cries*

The motion, though, is coming along nicely. I have just one section that I need to tweak a bit, then a final review before I send it off on the electronic highway for filing. It is, if I may say so myself, a damn fine example of legal writing and persuasive argument. I, quite obviously, rock! *g*

After court today I plan to make a bit more progress on the holiday shopping front, as I will be knee deep in trial prep for most of the weekend. I also need to get caught up on laundry and life in general as next weekend I'll be heading to California with Niece Child the Eldest for a weekend at Disneyland. How is it that December is flying by so quickly??? *boggles*

Any how, I hope y'all are enjoying the hell out of Friday. I especially hope that poisontaster is enjoying the hell out of this Friday because this one happens to be her birthday!!! Happiest of birthdays, PT! I hope the day is full of the things that make you happy and that the year ahead brings lots of love and laughter your way! *mwah*

Happiness, better late than never.

Today's happeh-making happenings:

1. One of my January trials got continued for two weeks, which frees up January to manageable levels and which may even allow me to take a long weekend out of town mid-month! I think I may be going to visit annkiri in Austin! \o/

2. Frosty the Snowman was on t.v. this evening! It's still on of my favorite holiday cartoons!

3. I had a most delicious cream puff for dessert! Yum! It was entirely decadent and scrumptious.

4. A hot aromatherapy bag is currently working it's magic on the tension headache that plagued me all day. *relieved sigh*

5. azewewish posted these pictures of Viggo Mortensen and Jason Isaacs this morning and they have definitely been my happy place all day:
