They Like Me...

They Really Like Me...

Or they are completely off the wall.

I've been selected for jury duty.

I've had to sit in front of the defendant and his attorney. During jury selection she focused on me. I'm in the front row withh 5 other people.

The Prosecution raises an objection during one of the Defence questions to the potential jurors. (which I am thrilled about because I had no real clue what she was asking) She did not repeat the question.

Questions are asked, stories are told.

24 people are in the room. One is excused because she claims she doesn't understand English (even though she has lived here 4 years and has a Driver's License), one is excused because his hearing aid doesn't work at a distance, one is excused because she is married to a Sheriff Officer who is friends with a witness (more on that later).

They need a jury of 6, down to 21.

After a brief break....first name called....

Me

Even after Defense...

Never mind, much, much more later

I cannot believe I have been seated on this cases

What I Want

Well, we will have another rain event either this afternoon or tonight. Could be severe, may not be. Weather men, you can never trust them!

Yeah, I know, some of you are still digging out of the bazillion inches of snow that just fell again.

I am tired of winter, I want summer. I love 92 degree days, with 90% humidity. That is what I moved here for. (Well, not really. Not A Grampy was transferred here with the Coast Guard and after he retired we never left).

But, I digress. I want summer. I want my pool to warm up to 90 degrees, I want to be able to lay in the pool and read a book and drink my wine. I want to sweat my ass off when I am plucking lovely ripe tomatoes from my tomato plants. I want my fresh green and yellow peppers to become plump veggies. I want the cilantro and jalapenos to hurry up and grow so I can start making fresh salsa.

I want to win the cleavage contest over at Pointless Drivel.
