Jury Duty

[Cadaverous Pallor]

I was picked for a jury once, DUI case. I heard two days of testimony then went on a 3 day holiday weekend. By Tuesday I blindly drove myself to work and totally blanked on visiting the courtroom! After being at work a half hour it finally clicked and I called in to apologize. They told me to forget it. So I got out of passing judgement and didn't have to go back in. I wonder if that goes down on my permanent record.

It's probably the blondest moment this natural brunette has ever had.

Ironically, I forgot to mention in the selection that my uncle is an alcoholic who spent many years in prison for repeated DUIs. Duh.
