Please Don't Pick Me, Please Don't Pick Me

So, I've got to go to jury selection today. And though I've always thought it would be fascinating to do, I was kind of hoping it would happen in my forties, when I didn't have little kids to shuffle around for a week.

So, if they don't pick me, I'll just be gone for today. If they do, the trial will last all week. So, I may or may not blog this week.

This ought to be interesting.

Oh, and my little brother (who just moved back from San Diego after one week because he just couldn't STAND to be away from his sweetheart that long) will be watching them today. I'm a wee bit apprehensive about that one. I'm sure he'll take good care of them, but he's not always an authority figure in their eyes, so I hope they'll behave.

Wish me luck!

Good luck with jury duty "tryouts"... it's such a stressful time. Ugh!

I think it's precious you little brother moved back to be near his sweetheart! Sounds like a good guy to me!

I'm sure the kids will be fine. The problem won't be with him, but for you. Trying to de-uncle the kids. That's the hassle! ;)

Why yes, I did. I'm not sure if that's good or not.

I'm excited about the actual jury duty (though it ranged from fascinating to TERRIBLY boring today). What I'm not excited about is the logistics and the not getting anything done that I'd intended to do this week. Ah, well.

Such is life, eh? Thanks for visiting.
