I have been trying to ignore my left back tire going flat for a little while, I put some air into it a week ago hoping it would magically fix it, but this morning it had enough and deflated. I was able to get it to the tire shop where I received the bad news, it had to be put down. Even worse, the other 3 had to be put down as well, they were quite worn. The tires held up pretty well for their age though but 700 bucks stings, a lot. Especially since the credit limit for my emergency credit card was dropped recently. Such is life.
I also got summons for jury duty today, fanfuckintastic. I don't have to go in until October 20th and hopefully I can avoid getting chosen to serve like last time. I will get my crazy face ready though, just in case.
In good news Mike and I are going to go up to Shaver this weekend. I can finally get that hike in I have been wanting to do since the beginning of the summer that I never got around to. I am not sure which one or ones we are doing, I am leaving that up to Mike, the expert hiker, but I am sure there will be pictures to post.
Flat tires stink! I just had to replace mine 2 weeks ago.
ReplyDeleteJurry duty sucks but from my experience last time I didn't need to be crazy to be excused by the defense attorney just having a Master's Degree was enough for him so good luck
Ooh I have one of those, I might have to bust it out.
ReplyDeleteCivic duty people, civic duty. You two are the kinds of thoughtful people that should be on juries.
ReplyDeleteI dont want the pressure! I am not going to lie or act crazy or anything though, if they want me on the jury then fine, I would just prefer not to make a decision to send someone to jail. It also is hard on a small business when an employee has to be gone for a long period of time, there really isnt anyone to do my work for me.
ReplyDeleteLast time when I went and they asked everyone if they had any predjudice about the trail (it was that Genisis case with the two sisters)which I totally could have lied about because it was going to be a very long trial but I didn't because it wasn't right, my conscience wouldnt let me.
Adam- I wanted to be on the Jury and I was really upset when they dismissed me I wanted to yell hey just because I'm educated doesn't me I can't relate to you client.
ReplyDeleteI really had a complex about the whole thing
C'mon Lulu, just have your dad run the machine in your office. Everything will be just fine! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI do understand the small business thing. People do have legitimate reasons not to serve. It's the people who just don't care at all that bother me, or don't want the inconvenience.
