yep i'm a dork!

yesterday i had jury duty and while i was peeved at first that i had to go i quite enjoyed it. maybe bc it's all the tv drama i watch coming to life? maybe it's bc one of our "systems" in this country actually seems to be working. either way, i enjoyed seeing all the different types of people, opinions, situations (bc you sit and are interviewed with about 20 people). it's also interesting to see lawyers at work- particularly when they rep the city of nyc and the transit system... i was super close to sitting on the jury and only got out of it bc i am on a flight tomorrow. kinda bummed i'm not gonna lie- is that weird? i would have liked to participate and deliberated w others abt the outcome. i'm sure if it were a criminal case i would be more apprehensive, but in this case i was interested to sit in a real court room, hear arguments and see evidence from both sides. verrrrry interesting....
