Business Legal Referral’s Insomnia-Fueled Rant Is This Needle-in-Head Thing For Real or Am I Hallucinating Team TechuckSeptember 11, 20240833 views Brain Needles, Legal Nightmares, and Why Should I Get a CT Scan After Car Accident Keeps Running Through My Head Like a Bad Jingle [Sound of coffee mug clinking] Is this thing on? Whatever. It’s… what day is it? Who cares.

So, this lady… car accident. Minor one. Probably texting about cats or something. Gets a scan and bam! Needles. In her skull. Like… what? Is this a thing now? Are we all just walking around with haberdasheries in our heads? I swear, if I find out I’ve got a crochet hook lodged in my frontal lobe, I’m… I don’t know. Probably gonna need more coffee. Or less. I’ve lost count. Legal Mumbo Jumbo That’s Melting My Brain And now I gotta deal with the legal fallout. Because of course, I do. That’s my job. I think. Sometimes I wonder if I just dreamed up being a lawyer. Wouldn’t that be nice? Anyway, long term disability appeal process. There’s a fun phrase. Try saying that five times fast. I did. Bit my tongue. Now I sound drunk. Am I drunk? No, just tired. I think. Creepy Legal Stuff That’ll Keep You Up at Night You know what’s baking my noodles? Besides this whole needle-head situation? Disability surveillance tactics. Yeah, that’s a thing. Like we’re all in some bad spy movie. “The Bourne Disability.” I’d watch that. Maybe. If I ever sleep again. Job Worries: Because Life Isn’t Complicated Enough Oh, and here’s a fun one for your next anxiety spiral: Can your job fire you after a car accident? I mean, probably not legally. But add some skull needles to the mix and who knows? “Sorry, Bob, we have to let you go. Your head’s become a safety hazard. Think of the metal detectors!” I’ve Lost the Plot (And Maybe My Mind) You know what? Maybe I should move to Texas. Become one of those lawyers firm in Pearland TX. Sounds fancy. Pearly. Is Pearland pearly? Is that why they named it that? I need sleep. Or more coffee. Or to wake up and realize this whole needle-brain thing was just a weird dream brought on by too much late-night pizza and law textbooks. Is it normal to forget what a brain looks like? Asking for a friend. The friend is me. I’m the friend. Maybe I’ll become a professional CT scan… person. Thing. What do you call them? Scan… scanners? That can’t be right. Whatever. Gotta be better than this. If anyone needs me, I’ll be… somewhere. Probably. Unless I’ve turned into a pin cushion. Can people turn into pin cushions? After this case, I’m not ruling anything out. I’m going to bed. Or to stare at the ceiling and try to remember if humans have always had skulls or if that’s a new thing. Same thing, right? [Unintelligible mumbling fades out]
