got placed on a jury. of course.
never been before, so it's kind of interesting.
and really effing heartbreaking.
am likely the most emotional basketcase they've had as a juror in a long time.
miss working with cupcakes.
now completely in awe of all my lawyer friends. especially the one who works for the d.a.'s office. don't know how you do it.
give me the strength to get through the next week.

ReplyDeleteI'm on call for jury duty this week. So far, no need to report. Yet. One more call to make tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI was placed in the jury box for all of 30 minutes and then I was quickly released. Heh. The defense really didn't like my answers to his questions. :P
