Has there ever been a time that I wanted to take a time out? That actually happened today. So, I can’t give a lot of specifics and you’ll understand why in a second but I was called for jury duty and ultimately was selected…
So anyway, I ended up getting selected and I knew I didn’t want to be, um, besides just the basic like it obviously really interrupts your week. I heard what the crime was and I didn’t want to hear more. But I also didn’t have a legitimate reason to not serve, so, um I kind of just let the chips fall where they may whether or not the lawyers decided to dismiss me and they didn’t. So again, I can’t get into specifics but today they had a printout of the charges and then the legal definition of what the charges are or what the charges — like what a person would have to have done, what would’ve had to occur for that specific charge to be accurate and the first bullet point under one of the charges, I just like, put the paper down and thought to myself, “Oh, I don’t think I can do this. Like if that’s what happened — ” ‘Cause there was like a menu of potential outcomes essentially that if that outcome occurred, basically, the crime qualifies as this type of crime. And so when I saw, oh, like this is an option on the menu of things that maybe happened, if this is what it is. Like I don’t wanna hear about it. I don’t — certainly don’t wanna see it, so I was feeling almost like sick. And I say that and I’m not a particularly, like, squeamish person. I’m normally not terribly affected by something I read. See is kind of a different story. Like, I don’t like excess violence, you know, in shows or video games or whatever, but. Anyway, so that was the time I wanted to take a time out.
