Jury Duty and the movement of the planets...
I grew up being told that horoscopes were evil and with a very Anglo-Christian conservative world view that stated God controlled everything. I think I am doubting this sort of thing more and more! I do believe in karma and I believe in being a good person, but there are some things I do doubt.
I was challenged at jury duty today. First I should mention that none of us got to see the inside of a court room as the only trial was adjourned before the jury was empanelled, but not before we were made to watch the Juries 101 for dummies video! LOL! Anyway, we were told that we could swear an oath on the Bible, or other book pertaining to our beliefs (although I don't think they meant the Kama Sutra! LOL!) Or we could say this huge affirmation or something. I figured it was just easier to use the Bible even though I don't know what swearing on it actually means any more.
Anyway, last Tuesday I rang to find out what time the appointment with the family counsellor was on Wednesday. Apparently we were meant to confirm it on the Monday and it had been given to someone else. So I made another appointment for this week, knowing I might be required for jury duty. Fortunately we can keep it! I can also ring legal aid in the morning... Perhaps the planets are aligning... perhaps W will finally get it!
