I cleaned the dog yard and brushed the dogs... Too bad it's 90 degrees with 70%+ humidity so I had to take a shower again as soon as I got inside. I had to wear long pants and closed shoes to cleanup the yard due to my mosquito magnetism. Even copious amounts of deet can't keep them away from my tasty tasty blood.
Stop drinking beer, I hear that attracts them!

I had a better day today. :D I'll take slightly at this point.
Mikey made me the tastiest fruit salad for dessert. I love him so much.
I have jury duty tomorrow. I wonder what interesting things I will see. They told me when i got selected that I was not allowed to wear my swimsuit to court and that I need to wear shoes. The funny thing is that someone had to violate that rule to have it added to the recording.

Kerryann, are you serious? Do you really think that it's ok to go to court for jury selection in a bathing suit and sandles? I'm glad you had a good day. About the jury selection, or have you been selected as a juror? If you are selected as a juror, will it be a civil or criminal case?


Kim, where did that come from? Lol

Um if it's a day off work for me wearing my bathing suit is in order. Actually I'd freeze my assets off in a swim suit in a air conditioned building.:D I haven't been selected as a juror. I am a horrible liar or i'd say I am gonna lie. My hatred of criminals, animal abusers, child abusers, and people who need a real problem will probably quickly get me DQed.

They didn't say I couldnt wear sandals. They said you have to wear shoes which I took to mean non barefoot. I will be in sandals, jeans and a blouse. :D

Ken I'm jealous except not being outside today was a good thing. It was yucky out. It thundered so hard I thought something blew up.
Sibi I'm finally starting to think it's time to move on. I love what I do but I hate not being able to do the best job I can. I don't have a high thyroid or I'd be skinnier. I really like getting to do security, work with clients, have employees, and still flex my technical knowledge but I feel like instead of cutting the low performers they just let the high performers bear the burden.

Hypothyroid or high thyroid makes people gain weight and it is very difficult to lose ir. Hyper thyroid makes you drop weight. I have hypothyroid and gain weight rapidly when my medication needs adjusting. Just so you know:)


Oh & hi. I was just checking out what you all are up to.

The beer hating comment came from the page before where someone said Mosquitos like people who drink beer.

You have a great idea there. I should dress for the beach next time. I have been a juror 3 times. Two civil cases, and one criminal. I don't think I could ever do a death case. It just seems that if you're selected once, they call on you every few years thereafter.

Oh yeah, I think I heard that on Dr. Oz today.

Hi, I'm good. Everyone is healthy and happy and I finally have the taste of Desitin out of my mouth because this morning, half asleep, I accidentally grabbed Desitin (diaper rash cream) and spread it on my tooth brush and was so confused and horrified that it was not as slippery and light as toothpaste!!!!!

Re: the Zimnerman case I honestly didn't know what to think about the trial. It was a terrible tragedy. My main concern was that there was going to be riots because my SIL lives in D.C.. I was just relieved that nothing crazy happened when they read the verdict!

I have been called for Jury duty a few times and I always say no because of child care issues. I get super nervous every time I call them to say I can't and its alway's anticlimactic because they just say.... "ok".

But they called you now, right? I mean, you're going there tomorrow, aren't you?

Jacqui, really you wouldn't want to be a juror. Most of the people they pick as jurors are stupid with a capital S! I would be more afraid of how jurors reason than the lawyers, judge and police combined! In all my cases, i couldn't belie e the stupidity coming out of some jurors mouth! I've had to straighten them out most times. Once, there were the majority against the prosecution and i was the only one who redirected their attention took the the actual charge at hand. No fun, believe me. I did manage to change all their minds.

I read somewhere that an unhealthy person exhales more carbon dioxide than a healthy person and that mosquito's are attracted to carbon dioxide.

I'm disgruntled they don't let phones in.
