Your typical upstanding American citizen here...
Or not. Or, maybe I am really typical, because nobody in the line wanted to be at the county courthouse as part of jury selection either.Don't get me wrong. It would be on my list of totally cool things to do, standing on a jury for a real trial (or frivilous lawsuit or whatever the case, no pun intended). But right now it isn't, because I just got home yesterday from an 8-week summer session in Berkeley where I had to get to class at 8AM four times a week and my summer has just started dang it and I want to sleep in before I have to get back to Pomona two weeks from now. Getting up at 9AM for a trial doesn't sound very attractive to me, nor does getting stuck on a criminal trial that might last for THREE weeks.
But it's okay, because my panel wasn't picked. We were dismissed at 10:30AM when it turned out they didn't need people for the afternoon. I feel bad for saying this, but...YAY!
Now I get to do all the summer-y things I missed out on. Like...SLEEP!

allo! I'm a bit slow, so I still don't know who you are but I saw you on Bickster's new groupblog. annnyway, I have jury duty on Monday.. and I finally get done with freakin' summer school this Friday. >:O Unhappy am I. If I get picked for jury duty and it lasts for a while, I'll have to miss out going to Studio City for a week and Chicago for a week. :( My vote better damn well count come election time!!
