It’s a difficult time to be a clerk. As a result of my job, I’m not comfortable commenting on any of the recent Supreme Court opinions that were published last week. That’s difficult for me because I have opinions, I just can’t say anything about them. Suffice it to say that I love watching the Court and reading all the commentary. It’s interesting to see what my opinions look like next to those who have studied the particular topic.
In other news, Jupiter is crazy for the moths. This morning he was in my bathroom trying to go after two of them at the same time. It’s fun to see a cat go nuts while on a slippery surface. At one point, he ended up with a moth trapped against the floor while he was lying splayed out on his stomach. I’ll try to get a photo if any more of the little buggers manage to get in.
Incidentally, all of this moth talk reminds me of why I really don’t mind spiders in the house. They’re much preferable to moths. Spiders, for the most part, tend to stake out their space in a corner somewhere. They pretty much keep to themselves. Moths, on the other hand, have some sort of cat-maw death wish fantasy. And they’re irritating, constantly flying around and surprising you when you open things or turn on lights.
Given that the spiders, in addition to being more polite and dignified, eat the irritating moths, you can see where my sympathies lie.
