It's probably unlikely, but as I understand it, it's not impossible. Usually, there is a grand jury that has been selected and serves for something like a month. They don't convene every day, though. In smaller jurisdictions, they may meet something like every Monday and then as needed.

Cool, guys. That really helps.

I need to get me a nice police contact for MS fact-checking.

Not Nora, Vortex postng on Nora's phone while drinking beer and grooving to "Brick House". Ginger is right. The lawyer may be rushing fir the three days because s/he wants to get before the grand jury before the session is over.

Erin, there's an LJ community (littledetails or something like) that I know some fanfic authors use. Would it be cheating to mine it for professional gigs?

Argh, I have kvetching to do! The SO's travel was severely hampered by the wind and sand. He's safely in a hotel for the evening. But found out the graduation isn't until 6:30 tomorrow. Why there was confusion is baffling to me. But it means he could have stayed home with me for this graduation tonight and we both could have gone tomorrow. Now instead he'll have to stay two nights. I could do this grad tonight and join him, but I kept the dog instead of kenneling him.

Aaand now I've got a nosebleed, so me going to this graduation is in question, as it involves a 2000ft change in elevation each way. Which would mean I stayed and we are separated for nothing.

I know it's only a few nights, but with the six week tour coming up, I am a little grabby hands of time together right now.

Aims Im sorry you are having so much trouble finding a doctor, I know how hard that is.

So I have a young hummingbird in my bathroom. It was on the sidewalk of Burlington, I found it on my way back to my car after getting dinner. Actually I found a group of young girls and their moms crowded around it and trying to touch it.

They found it because their dog and sniffed out the bird's hiding place. And then it wandered into the sidewalk and almost got stepped on.

There is a wildlife rescue, but they aren't open until tomorrow. I put a phone call in to them and left a message, but I don't think I'm going to hear back.

I did manage to get some sugar water into the bird and it perked up. It can flutter its wings, but not fly. Right now it's in a box with a dishtowel and some weedy grass stuff it was trying to hide in.

The bird managed to hide itself again (i ran up to the office to find a box and came back and it had gotten under some leaves) but another dog went straight for the hiding place. I just didn't think it had a chance between all the dogs and foot traffic.

Also if I realized I needed to feed it every 30 mins I probably would have put it back. But now I have it and I'm going to try and keep it alive.

I am home. Vortex and her friends are disco-napping and then hitting Frenchman, in theory. I am soooo done for the night. Oy.

I bought a disposable e-cigarette to try today and it kept me smoke free! So seems like it might be worth investing in a reusable one.

askye, wow. Good luck! It's awesome of you to try, no matter what happens.

Aims, ISTG they make it purposely hard for people who have mental issues, because they don't have the spoons to fight. Fuckers.

And now I just caught Dean backing up to pee on my clean laundry. He walked past the litter box to do that! Maybe he's mad at me about something, I don't know. I guess I'll have to take him to the vet and see if he's got a UTI or something
