i don't work well under pressure. i day dream. i procrastinate.

i'm a shitty employee, and not ashamed about it.

i'm more interested in creating realities where people can create free of coercive influence than i am in contorting myself into some mental gymnastic that sees value in extorting people for profit...

...and i needed a nap.

that's what happens when i'm under pressure: i get sleepy.

it's consistent, actually. predictable. dead line tomorrow? big project due in the morning? i'm probably snoozing somewhere. and, i'm not going to pretend i really care when i wake up, either.

call me depressed, but i don't want your drugs. i want to abolish the conditions that you think spur productivity, because they don't - they just create unnecessary stress.

still no ruling.

i hope the judge doesn't think she's doing me a favour in stretching the ruling out, if she's going to give me 11 days at the end. i haven't done a thing to prepare to move. and, i'm not going to do so until i get the court order - because it's not the landlord that has the legal authority, here, it's the judge.

if she's stalling into november to give me until december 1st, i guess that's a net benefit. but, if she thinks she's just giving me extra days, she's misinterpreting my grasp of the scenario: i'm in this to win, outright.

i'm going to try to get back to filing, but i might fall back asleep. we'll see.

apologies to the guy with the order, but i'm kind of useless at the moment.

and, i'll remind you that if i win i will be immediately countersuing. if it's into november, that's another $670.
i think i should take it as a good sign that i don't have the ruling in, yet.

i'm not talking about the mail; i can check the database in real time. she said tuesday or wednesday.

it's thursday afternoon; she's taking her time. i couldn't imagine why she would need to do that if she wasn't researching, and that only really make sense if she's dismissing, or at least sees an excellent reason to consider it.

there's another interpretation, though. the landlord decided to argue with the judge at the last minute about how she has "property rights" (she doesn't.), and tried to guilt her over her mom (i think she's full of shit.). that was stupid all around, and especially stupid in a case like this where the judge has reason to doubt  her - to risk that the judge might conclude the complainant was essentially trying to sucker her into a quick ruling is another thing she didn't have to do, but did. if the judge comes around to my side, she may interact with that memory very poorly. but, she also might just be trying to smack a little but of humility down. she'll do this at her leisure, miss fucking pleb.

but, i didn't quite get that from the judge. she was haughty, but empathetic. that's a good judge. and, it's probably just taking a long time due to a good judge doing some good judging.

or, i hope, anyways.

that migraine set me back more than 24 hours. but, i've finally got this done.
