My mom served on a jury for a theft case where the prosecutor was just phoning it in. They found the defendant not guilty. The judge told them when it was over that they had done the right thing even though the guy probably had stolen, because the prosecutor just had not done his homework. May you get assigned to a fairly easy case like that.
Darn your sinister attraction!

Omnis, best of luck with jury duty.
Honestly, I'm not even sure what needs to be on these to do lists. I'm headed out with Thessaly and maybe that will help me focus.

In court room. Not on jury yet.
They play white noise when lawyers approach bench so we can't hear them. Do not like. Reminds me of work. Only we use pink noise.

Glad I went to Urgent Care -- apparently I have an ear infection in just the right ear. That's weird. The doctor said the pain from the ear could have triggered the migraine, which I suppose is possible, except I don't remember the pain from the ear preceding the migraine. (And I normally have ear pain with migraines, on the same side as the elephant-kicking-my-face pain.) Anyway, I got a shot of Toradol in my bottom for the migraine and antibiotic/steroid ear drops for the ear. Woo.

Teppy, I have a drug question for you: is it possible that Cipro side effects (dizziness, headache) might first show up when I'm four days into the meds? Or is this likely a new problem that I'm dealing with?

It's possible -- it may have taken that long for the drug to reach a certain level in your system. I had joint pain with Cipro, and it didn't show up for about 3 days.

OTOH, I think my trip to Urgent Care today proved that correlation isn't always causation -- I assumed my ear pain was totally migraine-related, because I always have ear pain with my migraines...and then it wasn't.
Bodies, man. So crazy.

Now that I've been able to switch back to Lyrica from Gabapentin - I'm hoping the dizziness will go away quickly.

Back from lunch. No more court updates allowed. I'm juror #7. Woot.
