I just came in to see if you had seen. Just saw it on CTVs FB update. Are you at home or work?
You guys are talking about THAT trial? Gonna check it out... that was fast, but I'm not surprised.
Looks like the jury is on it's way back in. Haven't checked TV, but CTV (at least Barrie) Facebook is pretty quick with their updates.

Not really. I just keep getting spotting for a day or two every 3 weeks or so. It's annoying the crap outta me!

Oh. My. Word.

Mr. Spring texts me, his plane arrived 30 whole minutes early! YAY!! I get to see him even sooner!

Then he calls me to tell me he got to the car and the battery is dead. Seriously? Universe, stop it already.

Thankfully there is a guy who works at the airport jump starting peoples cars. I'm a little worried that it had to be jumped three times. Just hope he gets home ok.

Just make sure Mr. Springy has the right car and not one that looks like his....my grandmother had to have someone hotwire her car and was almost out of the parkinglot before the owners caught up with her....

To the worthless smackhead who comes into work everyday threatening suicide, do it! Go on, stop wasting our time every bloody day. You're a waste of space and resources not to mention the money being spent on you by the NHS. Get some help if you're not going to slit your wrists.

To the smackhead who was shooting up in the bus shelter outside the front door of work. You know the rules. Take that s*** home. You dirty creature.

Whew. I'm okay now. [And now I know how easy it is to make a meme!]

(((rou))) Thank you for the hugs and I'm glad that case is over so people can stop harassing you! I ended up getting dismissed for cause from the month-long case...and possibly tainting the entire jury pool. The lawyers for the defense shifted quite noticeably in their chairs and made disgruntled sounds when I said my piece, and they gave me such a stony look afterward! Hey, the judge said to err on the side of too much information, I was calm and polite, even reticent, and all I really said was what I thought when I first heard the basic rundown of the case. Exactly what I thought. The lawyers and the judge talked for an awfully long time outside of the courtroom before coming in and letting me and a few others go.

Sarah gets hugs, too, and I shake my head at her husband, even though he meant well.

Saria, I have also been failing at picking a blog name. I swear I haven't deliberately delayed recaps, though - the lack of them has just been a side effect of everything else being all out of whack. Also, I am highly amused by the trollfaces in the Nick logo and hope that my willpower in holding off on watching Korra will at least mean I can skip along blissfully unaware of how much RAEG I could have felt about their shenanigans.

"...until someone loses an eye." <--XANDERCLOPS!!! Why is it too late to watch things? I'm glad I have a tutoring appointment tomorrow, though, but it's a good news/bad news situation. Good news: Getting paid for tomorrow's session and another session a few days ago to help him with this end-of-year paper. Bad news: Either the kid was utterly frantic and not paying the slightest bit of attention when typing what he showed me of this paper and was just so tired in our last session that he couldn't concentrate worth beans, both of which are distinct possibilities, or he got a concussion on the football field sometime in the last few months and is suffering for it. I wouldn't have this back-of-my-head worry if it hadn't taken giving him a task three times for him to realize what I was asking and if he had been able to accomplish it then instead of having to leave and schedule another appointment. It is entirely possible to just be THAT tired, but he said he looks at what he wrote for English class and says, "I wrote this?" This is probably just exaggeration! But his friend got all these concussions playing the same game and NRGH. They better not have jostled his brains around out there. I am SO glad my mom never let my brother play football.

Married bleeping men!?!?!? Why are 80% of my PM's on Facebook from married men? And why did this start as soon as I hit 35? No!!! I won't go there, ever. I won't even consider it for half a second. So stop sending me messages asking what I'm doing this weekend, if I'm going to whatever thing next weekend, what I did different to my hair, or what color underwear I'm wearing. They're camo and say bite me! Go ask your poor wives this ****. That's what they're there for.

This stuff sincerely makes me never want to get married Awful.

* And let me make a little note saying I know many more married men who would never even consider... It's just frustrating when you have 5 msgs and 3 of them are like this. The other 2 are 31 gift event crap. In 1 year (wait, 7 going on 8 months. i didn't think about round 2 with the ex. thats a first. still, it's getting there) I have not been asked out by one "single" man. Idk what's going on. I do nothing racy on FB and some of these men I have never met in my life. They are extended co workers I have only talked to on the phone, at work, and they sent me requests. It's just UGH!! as I angrily rumple up imaginary notebook paper. I've had it!

it was even crazier the past few days with closing arguments and deliberations, but i know all my co-workers are going to breathe a sigh of relief heading in on Monday.

since jury selection started on this trial on February 25th, we've also had 2 other murder trials and a cop-killing inquest in the building. it has been a crazy couple of months for the police assigned to our building, the court reporters assigned to all 4 of those cases and the court services officers working on them.

sas, that's exactly what they need; people who will honestly say whether or not they can judge the case on the merits of the evidence only. and, you went to jury duty and didn't try to weasel your way out of it.



i've learned so much about the workings of the courts thanks to this case; the jury roll processes, being made a sheriff's deputy so i could write jury duty notes for people, the role of the court services officers.

it's been a crazy 11 months with this job - especially since a tornado took out one of our courthouses last August and it took 6 months to restore it - but i've had an amazing time and i am so glad that these people picked me to work there!

Wild-sasparilla: I admit I am amused at you being dismissed. This person is far too reasonable! Not at all what we want. Also, possible sleep deprivation.
Yay for getting paid!

The good thing about waiting is that you don't become a spoiler junkie going through withdrawal after every episode.

I seriously can't get over how amazing today's episode of Korra was. It just . . . It left me unable to form coherent thoughts. It made all the previous and wonderful episodes look like crap. It's definitely one of the greatest, most FLAWFREE things I've ever seen and I'm going to have to re-watch it about a million times. The finale may very well kill us if this is just the halfway point.
