jury duty
I have been a licensed driver since 16, a registered voter since 18, a homeowner since 2008 and today was my first jury duty summons ever. Entire jury duty experience. Take whole day off of work, mostly bc I had a great excuse to decline all of my meetings and get some things done that I choose to do. Show up at 1:00 p.m. as directed & sign in. Start a new book. Wait 40 minutes. Get dismissed because all the cases were resolved in some way without a jury trial. Then I went to HEB and shopped like a rich, very high person. Frozen pizza, ice cream, almost ten dollars on one of my favorite very seasonal fruits, a tiny very heavy watermelon. Love Island themed Poppi for Kitty, and a Shirley Temple one for T. Four boxes of mochi ice cream bc there was a good coupon. Too many ice breaker mints (also coupon). Rice pudding and flan cups. One tomato, needed for dinner tonight. But look!
