Boil Boil Toil and Trouble

Today my blood is boiling. To the point where I think I need to pop a couple of extra blood pressure pills. Sad, isn't it, that I'm 35 years old and on blood pressure medication? Been this way for almost 7 years now. Prenatal hypertension my ass.

Anyway, the reason my blood is boiling is my boss. This week he has been in a mood that can best be described as FUCKING ASSHOLE!!!!

We have a case up tomorrow for final pre-trial and I've not been able to get him to focus his attention on this particular case for months. I've tried daily for the past several weeks to get him to work on the documents necessary for the pre-trial because, I know this is a shocker, I'M NOT A LAWYER, but I do know that these things have to be done.

So today, the day before pre-trial, he's all of a sudden in a panic about how this stuff isn't done and how there's no way he can go in front of the judge unprepared, it's his reputation after all, blah blah blah blah blah. Then he starts screaming at me about all this because apparently my disgust is starting to show.

So, I yell back. I'm only one person doing the work of two because he's "too busy" with "more important" things and "doesn't have time" to tend to all of this nonsense. I gently (ok, not so gently) remind him that I've been trying for weeks to talk to him about this case and he says to me - this is a beauty - WHY DIDN'T I TELL HIM IT WAS UP FOR FINAL PRE-TRIAL BECAUSE HE WOULD HAVE SAT WITH ME AND WORKED ON IN!?!

What the #*@$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I left for lunch not knowing if I was coming back. I was so pissed off, I'm still pissed off and sitting here writing about it is making me even more pissed off.

I need a drink.
