Maturity: I will soon be wiser than everyone in their 20s.



26th Judicial District Courthouse, Bossier Parish, Benton, Louisiana

HERE'S THE PLAN:


1.     I turn 30 on May 17th, 2011. 

2.     I am an indigent defender and I have a full day of court on my 30th birthday. 

3.     The courthouse (pictured above) is 16.2 miles from my house. 
4.     I am going to run to work.
5.     I am going to run home from work, too.  But I'm stopping at mile 14.  At Bear's.
6.     Bear's is a bar and it's a good place to stop if you're thirsty.
7.     It's 14 miles from the Courthouse to Bear's.
8.     My public schooling tells me that's 30 miles.

-Is there a shower at the public defender office?  No.  Ewww.

GAME TIME.
