Sometimes, you have to be careful what you wish for… The other day, I was driving along minding my own business when I had the strange thought that it had been several years since I had gotten any jury duty notices. I wasn’t actually hoping to get one, I was just wondering if maybe I was getting them at my last address and had been missing jury duty for the past 6 years or so without realizing it.
I am happy to report that I have not been missing them. I am not so happy to report that I now have jury duty. It’s not that I am not willing to do my civic duty, but I have a project planned with my students, and this is not well-timed.
The timing of this is quite interesting though. I was wondering about jury duty, and a summons arrived shortly after. Maybe I should try wondering about why I haven’t sold any of my screenplays for an obscene amount of money.
On a happier note than jury duty, I spent Saturday taking pictures for our Color Guard teams at their competition. They did amazing. Some of these kids are amazingly talented. I look forward to taking pictures for them again.
