Jury Duty

Well, at 8 am, I reported for Jury Duty. Finally got the call at 2:00. 50 of us went to the 8th floor to be told this was a criminal case, murder. I was not among the first 30 selected for questioning and felt pretty good about that. But then one juror was dismissed and guess who's name they called? You got it, MINE! Then I had to go through all the questioning by myself. But, when they dismissed 18 of us, I was one of them. I was sure glad. The last time, 12 years ago, that I was called to Jury Duty, it was also a murder case. Very interesting, but also very stressful. Glad I don't have to decide on this one. We went back to the jury room and they dismissed all but 35 of us. Yep, I'm going back tomorrow...
