elfs | You have got to be kidding me

Again? I just went last year!

It was barely a year ago when I was last summoned for jury duty. I managed to get out of in on the grounds that I did not think I could be a good juror for the case, and having read through the lawyer's tactics afterwards, I'm comfortable that I made the right decision.

So look what came in the mail this morning. I can't believe they're summoning me to jury duty again! I'm a lousy juror! I think too much! Worse yet, I have every intention of repeating my experience last year and blogging the whole damn trial from the juror's point of view. I'm sure they're gonna love that. (Actually, I did get a few emails from trial lawyers on both sides, as well as one linkback from a website for prosecutors, thanking me for revealing my insights as a juror, since they rarely get any of that.)

Oh, the office is just gonna love this. At least we're not triple-slammed with cherries on top in my division this year. Last year we were in dire straits and I could not afford to miss much. This year, it wouldn't be so bad. Still, a three week trial is a lot to ask.

Sigh. This is so gonna suck one way or another.
