Sigh...
I have jury duty tomorrow. I don't mind in the abstract, I know it's an important part of the justice system and all that... but... (1) I have to be there at the time when I'm usually just getting up; (2) it's in a part of town I really don't know (hope I can find it, and the traffic's not too bad); and (3) I don't like leaving my mom alone in the store, it's hard not having back-up if it gets busy. Oh well. Hopefully I'll get there on time, and won't have to stay there all day. At worst I'll have some time to read.
In other news, I think the Red Sox won their baseball game. (I'm really not into sports, for those of you who don't know.) I say this because for the past half-hour, we've been hearing monkey howls from outside, and car horns honking, and car alarms going off... and police sirens in the distance. I told
sdavido that tonight I'm really glad we don't park on the street. I dearly hope that there isn't going to be a repeat of what happened when the Patriots won a big game last year, when people tipped cars over and set fire to them in the streets. I cannot comprehend why happiness equals destruction in some people's minds... can't they just jump up and down and hug each other?
But I should really get to bed (assuming the monkey howls quiet down). If I don't get to finish answering e-mail and posts tonight, I'll try to catch up tomorrow.
