Work Annoyance
Hello, wife and Peruvian farmer! I apologize for the lack of updates – work has been alternating between a grind and flurry in an attempt to close the second quarter, and so my missives have been non-existent. I am still working on the story, in my head, so hopefully when I get a chance I will be able to get some of it down on paper, digital or otherwise. Friday and this weekend I am committed to carving out time to write. I will also be parsing out more meager portions to spread the dissemination over more time. Maybe.
Jury Duty
Well, wonderful. I get home and discover that I have been summoned for jury duty. OK, fine, I’m a citizen, I’ll do my duty, blah blah blah. The thing that gets me, though, is that I need to fill out a form with my information and send it to them. They don’t even give me the courtesy of having a damn postage paid envelope. Nope, I have to try to scrounge up a stamp from somewhere so I get the privilege of earning 7 dollars while judging one of my peers.
Hmmm.
Actually, I like the sound of that. I and I alone (ignore the other 11 people) could hold your fate in my hands! I could send you to prison on a whim! Muahaha! I mislike your shirt! TEN YEARS IN THE POKEY! Or perhaps I will be merciful, and grant you salvation with the mere nod of my head. OK, this jury duty thing isn’t so bad after all.
The stamp part, though…that still pisses me off.
