*** Final *** Jury Duty

Well, I'm happy to report I did not get picked for Jury Duty!

The case I was assigned to was a murder case that happened on Hudson Avenue back in September. Luckily, for me, I had already read about the case and the media around it, so I was happy to report that and show that, therefore, I could not be impartial.

Unluckily, because I didn't get picked yesterday for the jury interviewing, I needed to actually go before the judge and the attorneys after court and let them know of my knowledge and be excused that way... Not a fun experience by any means, but it worked...

So, back to work I am!

Oh yea, Andrea is pregnant and we don't call my son Junior...

***Update*** Jury Duty

They just informed us that the three cases for today (this morning) are now 4. I. Have been assigned to Judge Joseph Valentino, a NYS Supreme Court justice hearing a criminal case. Jury selection begins at 10 am and Judge Valentino requires a Questionnaire be filled out prior to the selection. I'm hoping based on how mine is filled out, I won't be selected- been a victim of a crime, testified in court, like to shoot firearms...

I guess we'll see what happens!

Also- another juror here is named Heather Hunt. A friend I attend Church with also has that name... I wonder if she is here!

Jury Duty...

Well, I got Jury Duty! I write this blog today while I sit, crammed into the Central Jury Room, with 400 of my new friends...!

We started this morning at 8am and, being one of the first here, I took to a side of the large room that I figured would not get crowded so I could read my book. It must be my "magnetic personality", but here I sit jammed in with a ton of people...

We've been informed there are 10 trials they are selecting jurors for - 7 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon. I'm hoping I don't get picked... Not that it wouldn't be interesting... I just don't have the time!

So, here I sit now watching "Ed Bradley" in a "get you excited" movie about Jury Service...

I see a long day in front of me...

quick Post

Hey all!

Just a quick post to update on the Mayhem that is now YE. We are starting to see light! This week, its only two days, but I've started working less overtime.

Brian jr is finally getting over his hand, foot and mouth issue. Back to his normal self, I got the bruises to prove it!

Also, for those of you readers who were at the Euchre Party Saturday night - I had a great time! I had to leave early... Anyone catch what place I came in?

See y'all when I see ya! HEY- THERE'S REALLY GFP THIS MONTH!!!

Mayhem

Well, YE is definately upon us now - in full effect!!!

I've now had my third week of working 12+ hour days and its been insane. Sales have been through the roof, its crazy!

In other good news, junior has Hand, Foot and Mouth disease. He's starting to get better, but he was at 104 deg. temp for a while. Luckily, Tylenol was doing the trick.

Otherwise, things are getting final for St John Fisher in the fall for their MBA Program. I'm really excited about this. In a few weeks, I have to sit the GMAT Exam, and then all should be final...

Well, that is all for now! Let me know how you all are!
