Welcome~
I’m your gal paralegal!
Your gal here feels old. Cold rainy weather awakens my old ankle injury from when I used to play field hockey in high school. My body hurts every morning because I’m probably low on calcium and I probably should photosynthesize more. I’m an emotional woman who enjoys drinking her iced matcha latte every morning (not from Starbucks, I’m a Peets Coffee girl) with soy milk because I’m lactose intolerant. But I’m told I need to cut back, so I have to settle with peppermint tea on some days.
You may be wondering why I even need something like those to start my morning. You see, I work for a law firm. I think that’s enough explanation… sometimes we’re busy and sometimes we have down time, but mentally, you need to be prepared for anything to happen. So, that’s why it’s especially important to have crying breathing sessions. And your iced matcha lattes…
Because how will we keep surviving in this crazy legal life?
You don’t.
You either sink or swim.
I complain, I yell at my boss, get yelled at by my boss, get yelled at by clients, start fights with coworkers, pretend all is well when HR checks in, develop an Amazon shopping addiction, it’s rough out here for your gal paralegal!
A lot is going on.
This is the paralegal life, the legal train station. I chose this station to get off of.
So, if you’re trying to navigate through the work life, we’ll get along just great.
