In other news, I am like Sneezy lately, but mostly at work. VERY annoying.
Did you find allergies hit later in life? I sneeze at work as well, I attribute it to the dust and I clean like a banshee; but at home when they cut the grass I sneeze and I never really had allergies before.

I'd congratulate you but I can't be bothered.

[maybe slightly easier to get pumped for litigation?] But for other areas of law like corporate it is hard to get pumped up to do this type of stuff. "YEAH BABY IT'S THAT OM PRINTING FROM RED TO BLACK----LET'S GET THOSE FINANCIALS DROPPED IN A TABLE AND GET THIS BAD BOY FUNDED BOOOYAH" **pumping fist

I mean, meh. I'm exhausted by end of week.

I hear you dude, I live to say "tgif"....except when I have to work weekends. law's a bummer.

How might a reasonable accommodation for this play out?

Good move. Associating with tall and sinewy internet personas on lawyer-style chatting boards will make you skinny on the web. It's a proven fact of science.

I advise you to get some allowance for the loss of the subsidized doughnuts from the caf before signing any "work from home" agreement.

People suffering with a really huge, major crush on someone often experience mysterious, allergy-like symptoms. I read this in The New England Journal of Tiger Beat.

The good thing about graveyards is that they're really dark.

Do banshees clean? I am not saying this to pick on you, but I have noticed a proliferation of "...like a banshee" in conversations and on television lately and I don't understand why. I thought the original metaphor was "scream like a banshee" because banshees are know for wailing, right? But "clean like a banshee" or "cook like a banshee" doesn't seem to make much sense.

I know the original metaphor was for screaming and wailing. I thought it had "morphed" or evolved into a dervish of sorts...sort of clean like a tasmanian devil or clean like a tornado or cook like a banshee. But then again, you know I'm clueless like that, but yes I hear it referred to a lot.
