That's a good idea and a good reminder Zeebee. This is a very good point. I need to remind myself not to hesitate. I love her, she's been in my family for a long time and we'd grown close, so I need to keep that at the forefront of my mind! She is a master manipulator, so it's good to be reminded. Thanks Zee!!! Hugs!![]()
I think that was me, hamdinger. But don't worry, we're cool.![]()
No problem Chelsea!![]()
I worked in pathology. Anything that was removed from surgery would come to me. This included tissue and 'stuff.' Stuff as in knives, screws, nails, bullets, dildos, crayons, batteries, plastic bottles, brushes, you name it. When it was something that wasn't suppose to be in the body, and came from the butt, I would browse the chart. This one guy had a habit of accidentally sitting on his wife's vibrator while she was out of town. Same ol story; 'I took a shower, wrapped the towel around my body, went to the bedroom, took the towel off my body while I was sitting down in a chair. I must not have realized my wife had her vibraotor sitting on the chair. I felt something enter my manhole and became startled. Nothing has ever happened like this before. Except for the previous two times. ' We would laugh our asses off at his stories. I have yet to meet a woman who has a dildo standing upright on a chair in her bedroom.
I would have to dictate the dildo for transcription for a pathology report to be added to his medical chart. 'A long rigid cylindrical shaped object is submitted labeled 'surgically removed from rectum.' It is purple in color and measures __cmx___cmx___cm. The object is opened and contains four small cylindrical shaped objects labeled 'energizer double AA batteries' measuring ___cmx___cmx___cm. All five objects have been placed in a small bag and will remain in the department for up to seven years, unless a formal request from the owner is submitted to return.
Just watched the second half. It appears to me that she is starting to break down. I don't know how she is going to talk about killing Travis without losing it.
Shit's gotten interesting. I can hardly wait for tomorrow's testimony.
I do not know yet! I love criminal law, but I have been told real estate and family law are always in demand for paralegals. I think real estate would be fun because you would always be busy lol. From your posts you seem to love your job so that gives me hope!! haha
The only terrible thing about school is I miss most of the trial. I REALLY want to see Juan get a hold of Jodi. Well I am done school in December, it looks he won't get to her until then anyways!
My daughter doesn't know the details and hasn't read any of the diary entries, but she overheard me talking to my hubby about the "Dear Diary" posts. I joking said, "I always wanted to be a writer! I just knew I'd be good at it." My daughter said, "You're good at writing for a murderer. Think about that for a minute mom." LMBO, I've got some crazy kids!
Good thing for Jodi is her booty hole was so stretched, nothing could get stuck!

Yeah, I would be bummed to miss the trial - but good thing much of it is on youtube and Berm with her fabulous recaps and Justice with her excellent journal entries!!
One nice thing about being a paralegal is that you are not totally tied into a specific practice area. So, you could try all of those areas. I think if I had actually gone into the legal side of things, I would pursue criminal - it's just so flipping interesting (for us morbid folks especially!). Good luck to you! I hope you find a WONDERFUL firm and have great fulfillment in your job!!
In case you want to listen to that again
Hey, you should be proud of that in a way - there are a LOT of writers who make a ton of money on that. All the screenplay writers for murder movies and shows (whoever writes Castle is my secret lover), and the many, many murder mystery writers out there. Maybe you should take that skill to the bank!!![]()
Jodi Arias’ Alleged Murder Victim Told Friend: ‘She’s A Nymphomaniac And Super Sex-Crazed’
Jodi Arias‘ graphic testimony and repeated sexual bombshells sent ripples of shock through Maricopa County Court in Phoenix, Arizona last week, and deeply disgusted victim Travis Alexander‘s family and friends, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.
“She is scary because you know she is lying about something, but you almost think she believes her own lies because she is selling it so effectively,” Travis’ good friend and former roommate, Taylor Searle, tells RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview.
“I don’t take anything she say as 100 per cent truth. Her credibility is zero with me, and that’s her reputation with me. I look at it through the lens that everything she said up until now has been a fabrication,” he says of the serial liar who has changed her story twice about her involvement in Alexander’s gruesome death.
As RadarOnline.com has previously reported, during her first day on the stand last Monday, Arias, 32, admitted to killing her former boyfriend, 30-year-old Travis Alexander, a motivational speaker, by shooting him in the face, stabbing him 27 times and slitting his throat from ear to ear in his Mesa, Arizona home in June 2008. She insists she acted in self-defense.
Following three days of defense testimony packed with tales of alleged childhood abuse, cheating boyfriends, and oral sex and intimation from Alexander, Jodi and her attorneys have been doing their best to paint her as the innocent victim, but Taylor is not buying her performance.
“If I was then to assume that everything she says now is factual, then what I think doesn’t change at all,” he explains. “That Travis is a sexually-energized person and he has his religious beliefs that he is trying to uphold and a temptation that he struggles with – that is pre-marital sex – and Jodi is the vehicle through which he is making this decisions.”
“So I can see that he is trying to introduce her to the church and teach her the Book of Mormon, and share his beliefs with her, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have struggles.”
However, “I have a really hard time personally understanding how he can tell her about his religious beliefs, and then in the same breath want to go and have oral sex,” said the fellow Mormon. “It is really hard to digest and highly unbelievable, and would mean he was struggling way worse than I thought.
This all assuming that what Jodi is saying on the stand is the truth, which Searle does not believe for a second!
“I imagine she that is taking liberty with her memory so that it creates the narrative that he was a sex-crazed overbearing controlling individual and she was a little flower that he was taking advantage of.
“He always told me she was a nymphomaniac and super sex-crazed, so I am assuming what ever happened it wasn’t all him – but that is assuming what she says actually happened!” he exclaimed.
As for the tales of being beaten with a wooden spoon by her mother and string of dysfunctional relationships before she met Travis, Searle thought that was all aimed to pull at the heart-strings of the jury.
“As she recounted her childhood, what struck me is that she is really doing everything she can to try blame everyone else,” Taylor tells Radar. “I am really sorry if her parents were physically abusive to her, and I’m really sorry if she had boyfriends who cheated on her, and I am really sorry if she felt that Travis cheated on her – but nothing is an excuse for what she actually did!
“As long as we don’t lose sight of that, but I think that’s what she is trying to do by making it not about the fact that she killed Travis but about all her terrible experiences and have them have pity on her.”
Taylor didn’t like Jodi when he was first introduced to her by Travis when they were dating in 2007, and his feelings haven’t changed.
“She is exactly how I remember her. That is why I was always skeptical of her because she doesn’t show emotions,” he says. “The way she talks on the stand is the way I have always seen her talk, which is scary.”

i don't remember if this article was posted before sorry if it has.
I won't feel sorry for me, I'm getting drunk
But I'd much rather be somewhere with you
Alright all - thanks for the support and many well-wishes.You are all fabulous! Rest well with sweet dreams of murder trials in your head! ;) Catch ya in the morn!
After listening to all this crap, I would find her guilty even if she hadn't killed him.
ChelseyDawn...I absolutely agree.. people are responsible for their own choices. This had nothing to do with the Mormon faith. "Maybe" just maybe had Jodi not killed Travis he could have had a chance to turn that part of his life around.. but she took that away from him.
Rewatching some of today with dh and hes just laughing. He can't believe they wanted this aired.
Hey guys! Busy day...I made it in the courtroom. :) I'm also on Dr. drew tonight. No joke...I was asked to be the guest juror. I'll be in court again tomorrow (crossing fingers!) so ill provide an update tomorrow night. It's just too hard to keep up here while in court.missed following the discussions here tho!
