No Jury Duty

I was a "stand-by" juror this week. And I have been excused. I was instructed to call yesterday morning between 11 and 12 to see if I was to report at 1pm. Nope! Then I was instructed to call after 5pm to see if I was to report this morning. Nope! Then I was instructed to call after 5 today to see if I was to report tomorrow morning. Nope! And now, I've been excused for the rest of the week. I'm 52 years old and NEVER been called for jury duty, so I was kind of excited, but also knew it would wreak havoc with my job! So, even though I'm very happy to have been excused, I'm a tad bit bummed that I didn't get to serve on a jury...oh well, maybe next time.

Now, I must again complain about the idiots driving in this LESS THAN 3 INCHES of snow that we got last night! Why is it that people don't have a clue how to drive in snow? I saw three, count 'em, three wrecks on the way to work - the worst a spin-out on I-135 that basically brought traffic to a stand-still. I don't get it. It was a little slick, but LOWER YOUR SPEED, MORONS!

Fun times with Lenore

While Lenore and Daniel were here, she had a library book panel at the Johnson County Library in Overland Park. So, on Tuesday afternoon, November 27th, Lenore, her friend Rachelle and I took off for KC. We had a great time visiting on the way up and back, and I didn't get tired at all driving! We stopped for a quick bite to eat at Arby's and filled up with gas at QT before heading to the library. It was an interesting panel featuring Bethany Hagen, author of Landry Park, which comes out next year; Gennifer Albin, author of Crewel, which was released a few months ago; and Lenore, whose book will be released on January 15. Here's the panel: Me & Lenore: Lenore & Rachelle: Gennifer, Bethany and Lenore

K-STATE WINS!

K-STATE beat KU! AWESOME! It was a tense game. Corby is a huge KU fan, and even having a son at K-State hasn't changed that. I am happy when any Kansas team does well; but I had to root for K-State tonight. If the Jayhawks had to lose, I'm glad it was to K-State. Michael Beasley is a great player, and my only concern is that he will leave after his freshman year and go pro. WAY TO GO CATS!
