Jury Duty

This morning I proudly served my country by reading magazines in the jury holding room from 8am-1pm! I was kind-of bummed that I didn't get chosen for an actual jury. I didn't wake up at 6:45am (I normally wake up at 8:15am) for nothing! None the less, getting out early (and not having to go to work) gave me tons of time to go home and clean my apartment.

You should be a proud American Amber. Good for you!! :)

Although I have to say, I've never been in your position. Somehow all my "summons" of jury duty seem to disappear??? ;)

I was just telling Amber how I was called 3 times in 2 years (yep). I didn't know that you only had to serve once a year and could decline. That's ok, I was only asked to go in to jury questioning once. The rest of the time I got to read several books, play computer games & talk to my friends & family on the phone! Absolute coolness! Makes me want to serve jury duty again. Ha!
No, really, I wanted to do my civic service but they just didn't use me. Shrug their loss. I would've made a great juror.. I really would've!! =P
