Damn jury duty eligibility notices, again. You'll recall I was served with notice back in the spring, and after they told me to not come in the first two weeks, I received a dismissal for the third week of eligibility due to Easter and spring break. So, I'm off all summer with nary a thought about being summoned again. And then, just when it was good and out of my mind, I received a new notice of eligibility a couple of weeks ago. My new three weeks begins Monday, and I have to call tomorrow to find out if I really have to show up then.
And, guess when the third week of eligibility falls? Yep, Thanksgiving week - how is that going to work, if I was actually on a jury by that point?
I'm irritated. That's about it, but sometimes (especially by the end of the work week)that can be enough.

In my 25 years of having a drivers license, and 23 years of being registered to vote, I have never been called to serve jury duty. The bride has been called once, but didn't have to serve.
I've just cursed us, I'm sure.
25 years?! Dude, you are, like, soooo old.
