I have a very high tolerance for scent. I love perfume. So when I think you have too much on? It's a problem.

I was just going to say - the MSPCA let me and my ex husband, who had never had a dog before - adopt a 75 lb pittie with behavioral issues.

The fenced yard shit pisses me off so much. I had a 75 lb pittie who I just... walked on a leash. I didn't need a fenced yard because I am not an asshole!

Before I adopted Pippa I literally applied for over 25 dogs. But when I sent my application in for her I was getting texts from friends 30 minutes later saying they'd been contacted as a reference.

It was worth the wait. Don't give up hope.

Is it just me, or are all streaming services having more issues with sound synching? I will be in the middle of a show and suddenly the sound doesn't match the lip movement.

It drives me fucking nuts and I am left fucking around pushing various buttons and restarting until it "fixes" itself.

Judge: What's the plan

Defense: Ready to Go

Judge: Who is defense counsel's first witness

Defense: We need a minute

WTF? These two are insane.

Poor Bloodworth having to do legal mental gymnastics in response to this insanity. I can feel his headache through my tv screen.

THE INSANITY CONTINUES in the Kouri Richins case today.

I am watching on a delay, the jury isn't in yet, but defense is making some bonkers arguments to try and get some hearsay in. And apparently they may get it in, but then the state can also follow suit.

But someone should also be telling the other attorneys like, dudes, get your shit together.

I mean, if you have a trial that is being livestreamed it would be insane to not have several people watching the internet to see how people are reacting.

I am 100% sure someone was like, dude, Ramos. CHILL

Ramos actually came out with an INSANE cross in his first appearance.

Which I chalked up to being a young attorney. But he isn't that young.

But in his second witness he actually reigned it in.

And, as much as I fucking hate to say it, they have sidelined their best cross examiner with Ramos. Who is a man.

The defense in this case occasionally has a good thought and a good line of questioning. The problem is, they sandwich those questions between abject fuckery. And you cannot take them seriously.

She is literally giving her mother a narrative to tell her brother. She keeps writing "upon information and belief" because she saw it in legal filings and thinks it is stupid because she doesn't understand it.

Appropos of nothing. I had the BEST Kate Spade phone cover like 10 years ago and someone stole my phone while I was in Mexico and I am more mad about losing that case than I was the phone.

And did I get these because I will be in Florida for the Miami GP in April/May? Yes, yes I did. Might as well add some birding on to cars go fast.

Anyway - Judge Salinger in the Business Litigation Session of Suffolk Superior Court is amazing and a good judge.

And I don't need to ask leading questions of my witnesses because I prep the fuck out of them.

However, despite my best efforts, I did ask another leading question. Opp counsel objected.

Judge: Sustai... Oh wait. Overruled! Attorney Finch, I apologize, I forgot you were on cross.

I have had this happen to me once. I was doing cross examination and opposing counsel objected to me asking a leading question.

The objection was sustained.

Now, this was a witness that was "my" witness that Plaintiff had called in their case in chief.

I didn't argue, because I pick my battles.
