Jury Duty

jury-duty

Honey has jury duty tomorrow, and she has been obsessing about it ever since she got the notice in the mail.

Frankly, from a logistical standpoint, jury duty is a pain in the ass. 

We only have one vehicle, and our 3/4 ton MegaCab truck is too big to comfortably fit into the parking garage that adjoins the juror assembly room.  That means that I will be taking her to Humble to the Townsen Road Park-and-Ride to take the Metro bus downtown.  Then, at some point, we will have to coordinate picking her up again when she’s through. 

That should work fine, but Honey’s sense of direction isn’t great and her confidence in her ability to find her way around downtown is almost nil.  The last time she took a bus downtown, she was in Jr. High and she depended on a friend to find the old Loews Theater and the bus to take them back home.

The last time Honey had a jury summons, she got as far as voir dire and they sent her home in a hurry.  I think I’ll save that story for tomorrow.
