Well, I was called to Federal jury duty last week down in Los Angeles (2 hours away). I was not called into the jury box for the month long trial (!) so only had 2 nights down there. The jury selection was super interesting and I am sure the trial will hit headlines out here.
On a brighter side, my daughter is home for her 9-day October break, which is wonderful. We're having a really nice time just hanging out, going for walks, and spending time together.
