So, I've just had an epiphany. I think I may need to see a doctor. I don't know for sure, but I think I have a problem.
You see, I'm trying to write a law brief in opposition of a motion to dismiss. If you don't know what that is, no problem - I can assure you that you're not missing anything interesting. All that you need to know, is that for me as a student, it's a lot of work because I'm not used to writing these things yet.
So, anyways, as I'm writing, Alfie keeps jumping up on the keyboard. Things like the word "plaintiff" turn into "alkjdhgljkhkfhdslkfhsfd". This would be all fine and good if that were the plaintiff's name, but it's not. There was also a citation to the U.S.C. which similarly was turned into "aw;rbeawr;lkjahkjhlkjhla". I checked, and sure enough that is not a valid citation, nor is it in any appropriate citation format.
So, this continues, and continues. I keep pulling him off the desk, and he keeps jumping up. Obviously I get agitated.... frustrated.... even a little angry. Then, finally I snap. The fact that I snapped is not what concerns me. The way that I snapped is what concerns me, as it's troubling, and disturbing. Warning: the following quote from my snap is slightly graphic. Please do not read further if you are easily offended.
Here is what I said after he jumped up on the keyboard for perhaps the 100th time:
"Alfie! Stop! Stop! No! IF YOU DO NOT STOP, I WILL HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO TICKLE YOU TO DEATH! I don't want to do this, but you've left me little choice. If you jump up one more time, I will tickle you more than any cat has ever been tickled before! Do you want that? Do you want to force me to do that?"
I didn't yell, but you see, that's just not a normal expression of frustration. What is up with that?
