Jury Duty
Ada County Courthouse in Boise
I had jury duty this week. Usually I get dismissed so I wasn't too worried until I called the night before and was told that I had to report. When I arrived they took the whole room of people before the judge and attorneys and put you on the spot by asking specific questions. There were 30 people and only 6 chosen, so I knew that I was off the hook...until I heard these words" Juror #1 Melissa Campbell" Suck! This was a two day trial... that was about a vehicle hitting a bicyclist. As nice as it was to have two days away from the kids, it was just as exhausting!
In the end it was a great experience, but hopefully I will not have it for a long time.

how cool...I always wanted to my on a jury. I almost got picked in Tx but the guy came into the court room and pleaded guilty to avoid trial. He had molested some kids...so I'm not sure that would have been fun.
