WE RESOLVE

Fact: Most New Years resolutions are quickly broken.

Solution: Alter your expectations.

WE RESOLVE:

To eat more. Especially bad carbs like Ice Cream and M&M’s. Leave the brown rice and sweet potatoes for those making unrealistic resolutions.

To be nicer to the SAO on the blog. Bennett too.

To roll our eyes at opposing counsel when in chambers, the Judge, who graduated law school in 2000, tells us how s/he tried every case they had, had all depos set and most taken within two weeks of arrest. We also promise to continue coughing out loud when the judge whispers that s/he will let us in on a secrete- that the Governor really wants them on the 3rd DCA.

We’re going to keep fantasizing about women way too young for us (We mean like 20-25).

To spend like crazy. Best Buy here we come.

To work a lot more. So when the time comes to pass on to the great blog in the sky, we can have that dreamy look in our eyes as we sigh “at least we spent enough time in the office.”

To not even look at discovery until the day of trial. Especially in Federal Cases.

To charge clients less. Who cares about bills and credit ratings anyway? And sign up for all those Capital One credit card offers. Just load up and blow em out.

3 words: Butter, Pizza, Cholesterol.

We’re gonna put down that book and turn on ESPN. Plus, there’s a whole bunch of new gambling websites we need to sign up for.

Pilates and Yoga are for wimps.

Sign up for that beer frequent buyer card.

To be more nasty and rude to clerks than seems possible. We went to law school! Don’t they realize that means we’re better human beings than they are? They exist merely to stamp and copy, and to do it quickly at that. Chop chop.

And finally, to blog more at the expense of our personal life and work life. After all, there is that great blog in the sky, and we’re soooo very important to legal life in Miami. Right?

Gonna do our best- like in past years- do make a dedicated effort- or as Reno likes to say “Our Level Best” to keep each and every one of these resolutions.

See You In Court yelling at the clerk and mocking the judge.
