I've got to add a note about upcoming court date. In my effort to mentally prepare myself, I have reminded myself to avoid intimidation by visualizing certain people in the courtroom as being in their underwear. I'm sure you have all heard of this technique.

I find I have no trouble whatsoever visualizing H's L this way. To begin with, he is short and dumpy, given to grandiosity, and simply just not a good lawyer. Now, I like this man personally. His Daughter used to babysit for us. He's just not a good L.

As for my stbxh, the once self-described 'sexual Tyrannasaurus' (now long extinct) is no great shakes either. And he doesn't wear underwear, so this could be a problem. I could begin to laugh and be cited for contempt.

Between this, the massage the day before, and the Xanax I plan to take before the hearing, I may need bail.

Any takers???
