I have been called for jury duty and today is the day. This is also the day that the doctor scheduled the ultrasound of my kidney. I have to go in to see which one will win out. I have the order slip for the ultrasound and the paper ordering me to appear. If they want me to stay, I'll have to reshcedule the ultrasound. I don't really want to do that because I've been having a tremendous amount of pain. I wonder what will happen.
I really want to serve on jury duty. In all my 56 years, I have never been in a place where I could do it. I think it will be interesting. Rob said it was boring, but I found out yesterday that I could take my laptop. I guess most of the people don't even get chosen for a jury and after their one day of sitting around the courthouse, they are done for a year. Either way, I'm ready to go.
Of course, getting up early in the morning like this is definitely not my forte. I like to sleep until about 7:30 and grumble for a while before I have to actually be human. I always think that just another five minutes will make the difference for me. Probably not. Like my dog, I guess I'm just a natural couch potato.

I have been called twice. Once for attempted murder where the dude plead guilty at the last minute...waste of my time and once for mold in someones basement. Boring. Awful. I met some nasty impatient people that time. But i hope your run is enjoyable.I also hope you can get that ultrasound done! Love, lisa jo
Mike served on a jury. The case lasted a week! Be a shame to re-schedule your ultrasound, maybe they will let you off. Laptops would not be allowed in court over here.
I've done the jury duty thing twice, more than enough for me!! I usually get out of it because I'm a homeschool mom, the kids are first!!And of course now I'm disabled and not independant at all.

Oh, I wouldn't want jury duty! I would be too stressed out thinking somebody's fate would be in my hands and what if I didn't make the right decision!
