Jury instructions are boring. And the prosecutor has power point with missing punctuation. Repeatedly. When I am the one catching it, ya know its bad.
Still waiting on defense summation. Then we get to deliberate.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Jury duty done! I was not made foreman, although, I was sitting next to him, so helped with tallies. Also helped open dialog, as the foreman thought it was a slam dunk case. If folks want details, I can now talk details!!!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Sure, I'm interested, omnis.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Jury instructions are boring.
The juries I was on, I spent most of the time being angry at the lawyers (for both sides) for not asking the questions I wanted answered, and after closing arguments and instructions from the judge I was angry at them for having spent so much time on stuff that turned out not to be relevant to the actual questions we were instructed to rule on.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Please tell. I could seriously use the distraction right now.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I want to hear all about it.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I am quite ready for the Summer of Grieving and Loss to be over. Grandfather, friend, watching friends lose loved ones, grandfather's cat, the end of a promising relationship (broke up with M, don't want to talk about it), Robin Williams, Gaza, Iraq, crazy violence in my city, young unarmed black men getting shot to death…
I just want to sleep for a week.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
smonster, I am right there with you. And it's weird to say that while at the same time doing things that are fun -- it's been a full and enjoyable summer, but so full of loss that's so hard to carry.
