I'm finally back to work...never thought that I would say that. But for the past two days I was serving jury duty. Not actually serving but waiting for the court to make decisions for the jury.
I had to fill out a 19 page questionnaire about the case. They asked all kinds of questions regarding if I know about it, the people involved, detectives, prosector, defence, victim, perpetrator and the judge. One of the things that I remember the most is the question regarding how I felt looking at photos of the crime scene and victim. Heavy shit! Yeah, I'm a visual person but that shit I can't deal with. Especially when the victim was a 8 yr. old little girl and the guy is charged for MURDER and ASSULT ON A CHILD 8yrs or under. Man some fucked up shit!
It just hits close to home when you have little people in your family. So I got excused and I'm glad that I don't have to go through that shit. I have to go to lunch but I'll continue when I get back. There's more to say.
Okay I'm back! I just ate the biggest turkey sandwich...my belly feels soo good and in a better mood. I tend to be in a crabby mood and have a headache if I have an empty stomach.

Hey man, it sounds cheesy, but you are doing your civic duty, no matter how bad it seems. Been there. Good luck.
