I'm doing my civic duty this week. Had to report in yesterday - no trial though, they settled before they picked a jury. Am back to work today and tomorrow, but have to call in for Thursday. Maddy has a dr. appointment on Thursday, so I'd rather go to that with her - she's getting more shots and will be in need of some Mommy love.
Anyhow, as I sat in the court room yesterday, I noticed that the majority of the people there were pretty old. It seemed that reporting for jury duty was the hi-light of their lives. They all sat around jabbering about what was going on and talking about who the lawyers were that were in the room... it was quite bizarre. I, on the other hand, was armed with magazines and spent the morning reading up on the latest weight loss trends and "how to be a goddess in the bedroom." I had to kind-of hold the magazine a little weird, so the big bold "sex" headlines weren't too obvious. I never expected those kinds of articles to be in Redbook, Cosmo yes, Redbook not so much. I consider the magazine reading "research" for work, since I have to pitch to these magazines, but don't think I didn't learn a thing or two for personal use :)
