Josi….....
I finally took the time to get online….really never e-mailed or stayed in contact much with anyone but Casey…...so I’m late in seeing the full diagnosis..so very sorry. I’m still taking one minute at a time…..but have been thinking of you since you left….have checked the caller ID every single day to see if you called. Just wanted to make sure that you were ok. I figured you just got busy and by some miracle everything turned out better. If there is anything you need pleeeeeeeeeeeeease let us know. We will do all we can to help. Wish you were here so I could wait on you! I’d take good care of you too…..but very glad that your family is staying close. That’s great. Wish I’d had the chance to meet them all. All I know about them is from you and Casey. You keep your head up girl…..you’re doing great! You’re gorgeous with or without hair! :))))))))) We love you here in MN please take care…..call whenever you want day or night…..will not call you on the chance of interrupting your rest. HUGS….....Love You! Joni

HELLOOOOO LADY! How are you??! I’m glad you got our flowers.
Please tell your mom, dad, Anne and Louise I said hi. Is Louise even way more taller than me now or what??! HAHA Also, can you tell your dad I have a boyfriend now? He’s a nice Filipino/Spanish boy. When we were out in MN for Mara’s wedding, your dad was thinking about who he was going to set me up with. He gave me a lot of grief about not having a boyfriend. HAHA This Lady Esquire’s now taken. (I’ll fill you in on the details later.) :)
On a more serious note, I am so proud of how strong and positive you are! I never expected anything less from you. Take care and I’ll definitely be checking up on you. :)

Hi Josie,

I am so happy to see your positive attitude is shining through! I’d make you an awesome mix tape for you to listen to, but I think you heard just about every 80’s jam I own/listen to on our carpooling trips to the Masonic BAR/BRI lodge… On a different note, I’m moving back to SD! It turns out my brilliant idea to move back to the East coast was actually the worst idea I’ve ever had, so I’m high tailing it right back! Guess the “strong arm” of the law will be put to work on the left coast after all. Stay strong Jodie; my prayers are with you!

Glad to hear that you are home! Did you get my email about the hike I am doing to L&L Society? I hope that you don’t mind that I am doing this in your honor since you are going to be a cancer rockstar survivor, yo! We had our first hike on Saturday. I was at Madeline’s (my coworker and coach) house at 5:45am. It was quite early for a Saturday morning. We hiked 7.3 miles in the heat at Daley Ranch in Escondido. This weekend we are going to hike on Sunday somewhere in Escondido at 7am. There go the Saturday night plans…ask Jomama about those. ;) Anyway, I am going to start soliciting people for money for my hike. Hopefully they will be generous!

Right, here is another tip. If you click multiple times on your post a comment link, like, say, you think your computer just froze and nothing is happening, and so you start clicking over and over like a maniac, your comment WILL be posted about 50 times, once for each frustrated click. :) You probably knew that one, webmaster J Nice.

Aight, the sequel begins.

My little deal in front of Gallagher pled. The details of this beautiful case were int he 1109 evidence which made both Lindsay and I blush. Alas, when I asked Noah how I might handle the not so becoming details of such acts in front of a jury of 12 impartial peers, he asked, “Why is this case in trial?” Those are always the words that inspire me during a tough trial.

So yeah, I got a visit by Paul and went back in with an offer that undercut myself. Lindsay’s client was so happy with that offer that he brought us both flowers. This was blushing moment number two for us. Yeah, we have had some moments, us two.

Omar’s wedding was a hit. He looked like a freaking King—he rode in on a white Horse while a drummer drummed to the beat of a jam on a beat box. All of his uncles, cousins, and friends danced to this music as we approached the temple. I screwed in a few lightbulbs myself. (This is the hand movement you mimic when you get your groove on.)

Shel and I had quite the adventure getting around—including 3 hours of time driving around Illinois looking for the hotel, but hey, at least we know where Elgin, Illinois is now. They have a good Wendy’s in the little town. In order to curb our frustration, we consumed frostys and fries. That is probably why Max had to bring me another suit this afternoon. My other one was too tight and cut into me around the waist line. I thought it was just the size of my pantyhose, you know, like I bought a size A or something, but no, it was the skirt. It was way too tight around the top. I couldn’t breathe.

Remember when nylons used to come in those eggs? My mom would bring home those damn aggs and I would go buckwild! They even had them in like gold or silver or some non-egg looking colors. They were like the poor kid’s toy from heaven! I once caught a whole bunch of bugs and placed them into my egg of the week back when I was 7 or 8 or something. And since I had the same short attention span that I do now, I lost interest in the bigs within my egg after like 10 minutes after collecting them. And grandma, who was my default baby sitter sees the egg and attempted to throw it away. It hit the garbage and opened on up. Grandma has never forgiven me for that one.

Then again, my mom will never forgive grandma for letting me talk grandma into buying me two small chicks when I was 12. They looked so cute in the pet feed store cage and I started one of my only child acts filled with shenanigans grandma could not refuse. Well, those little MF’s turned into CHICKENS within 2 weeks. And they weren’t yellow. My mom muust have lost her mind. They kept getting out of the box in my bedroom and they pooped on everything.

So, was that enough nonsequiters for you? Think I found a meth pipe in the neighborhood?

Q

Oh, one more thing—Homedude with the five girlfriends was convicted. The victim in my case drove him home after the trial. MAN, don’t you wish you got it like that???

Oh, sorry for my spelling misgivings. “Aggs” and “Bigs.” G’s always throw me off.

man Q you are keeping me laughing! you musta found a pipe in the ‘hood. take it easy sista! heard about some of your little shenanigans on the chicago trip. its amazing you made it back alive getting shelly to the airport late and all.
i do remember those pantyhose eggs! us kids of single working moms know them well! why don’t they make those anymore?

Josie
Thinking of you all the time. I will be in Sacramento later this month and in August so let me know if you are up for a visit or need anything I can bring from San Diego. El Indio tortilla chips and guac?
Loved reading your comment about your case. Gives a eye into your life as a lawyer. We got to get you back into court to get those perps off the streets!
Keep the faith.
All our best, Peggy the Hamps and Annie and Walker

Thinking about you and rooting for you lots Josi!
