Locomotion

Went for jury duty today and to my great relief I discovered that I had not only served my civic duty to show up, but also was excused. Apparently the parties arrived at a plea-bargain deal. I was promptly thanked for showing up and left. For some reason, that felt fulfilling.

As a result of the closure of jury duty, I have officially turned the corner on the count-down to my return to work. I realize now that I am going back to work in eight weeks! Wow. I feel quite thankful to have been excused from serving on a jury and thus have some extra time with Birdie.

So, in light of my return to work (which, incidentally, is a new job, not the old one) and my next stage of life in locomotion, I purchased a new pair of shoes.

John Fluevog, how I do love you :)
