Duty Calls

Jury Duty again today. This time for District Court, which is different from Federal Court. I have to be there at 8am today. Gross.

I am NOT psyched about this. at all. However, I’m not nearly as nervous as I was first time. I know the general area where I’m going. The weather is supposed to be better, in the 60’s this week, so I won’t be trudging downtown in the snow and ick.

I’m taking my book, which is almost finished, and another to read, as well as some magazines.

Wonderboy is making his way towards Oklahoma today. Spring Break, dontcha know. We think perhaps some roller skating is in our future.

HEALTHCARE REFORM PASSED!!!!!

What an epic thing to see. . . to be a part of. It’s amazing how much resistance there is to monumental change in this country. But there was a day without social security, a day without medicare, a day without all of the things that people count on. This change? Well. It’s been a long time coming. As one of the million uninsured persons in this country I am extremely excited and proud of what happened yesterday. Only time will tell…but it’s about time right? yes.
