      Yup. Once I hit a certain time I just noped on outta there. I have since purchased wings, hot cheetos, and chocolate almond milk. And I have some drama to watch and an excellent book to read. I’ll deal with tomorrow when it comes.

        Jo Jung Suk can seem over the top sometimes, but he does express inner feelings really well.

          I was literally deciding between two different pics of him for this. He’s my #1 fave actor. (#1 Actress is Gong Hyo-jin, so this drama was literally my dream pairing.)

          Gong Hyo-jin was the second person in dramaland I loved. I fell for her in Pasta and then Best Love which is still one of my all time faves. If I had to choose one actor/tress in dramaland to watch forever it’d be her. She has never disappointed me with the complexity she brings to her characters. Not a single one of them has felt flat or unreal, no matter how outrageous the setup or dramatic the story gets. She grounds them somehow in a way I can’t explain and makes them feel alive and real.

            Pasta was my first of hers too! I still need to watch Best Love, my favorite of hers so far has been Master’s Sun, her character was so sweet you often forgot she was near crazy. I totally agree, she never disappoints!! And with everyone else you said about her ~ she just always seems so lovely and REAL no matter what

          I realized that she seems to pick characters who, on paper, are really annoying and would usually be the kind of female heroine who I’d drop a show for, and she makes them sympathetic and real.

          I watched Pasta because of The Voice, then I watched Best Love because of GHJ. I think that was actually when I fell in love with her, because on paper her character should’ve been SO annoying and stupid, but she somehow made her endearing and sweet. Same with her character in Pasta. And then with It’s OK, That’s Love, her character was wonderfully complex and fully realized even if she seemed contradictory and grating at times.

      So, my department at work (actually our whole branch) is reshuffling the junior and senior counsels in the department, though us clerks are staying put. And my specific department lost our senior on top of that, so we just have a junior and us now. And we’re literally training our new supervisor while dealing with our regular case load. So, we’re short staffed AND training someone who’s supposed to be our boss. (I also have…thoughts…on his ability to survive our department’s specific form of madness, but maybe he’s tougher than he looks?) So all in all, super fun times. We’re all so behind on our office work our desks are starting to look like storage for filing. And, to top it all off, my computer died yesterday, and all my old files are gone. I can replace most of the work, because it wasn’t important, but it’s still a pain. I just don’t know whether It’ll be fixed tomorrow or Friday, so I’ve been using other ones for now, but it just means I keep having to run to my desk for stuff.

      My bright spot is I have an appointment for a haircut tomorrow, so that means I get a sandwich and cookie after. And also new hair, because I’m bored with mine again.

        Hahaha I’m trying to be sympathetic but you remind me of “While you were sleeping”. Have you watched it? ^^; I’m totally not sympathising if your new supervisor is Lee Jong Suk. 😀 😀

        On the other hand *hugs* that does sound tough. Hope that computer is back in action as well!

          I WISH my new supervisor were LJS. Only watched first episode of that drama but intend to finish one day. New supervisor just seems meek, and we deal with a lot of crazy stuff here. I mean, I’m sure it’ll be fine, but June is going to be a hot mess. Maybe time to look for anew gig?

            O.O That bad? Hmm..I see I’d underestimated the situation earlier.

            Btw, come June and I’m in a hot mess too. One of our biggest clients has messed up pretty badly, and the assignment – once Courts reopen after vacation – is before a VERY volatile Judge. God help us.

          Surly, unpredictable judges are the worst. I’ve been in my current position long enough to be able to predict how our judges will rule on certain motions, but occasionally they surprise me. There is one judge, though, who seems to think that his interpretation of the building code is more accurate than the building inspectors whose literal job it is to enforce it. It’s so irritating. We call it “[Judge’s name] Law” whenever he makes a dumb ruling. My main solace is that the creepy old man judge retired at the end of last year, so no more seeing him.

          I’m just irritated right now because stressful day on top already hellish week has triggered my anxiety a bit. At least I don’t have to be in court tomorrow. I’m thinking of wearing sweatpants to the office because I’m pretty much out of f***s to give. I also cut off half my hair today, so that made me feel better. And hopefully I’ll have a computer again tomorrow. Thank God the weekend is almost here.
