I had a survey to fill out about a month ago. Then I got a letter with prospective dates. I am supposed to call the night before those dates to see if the court date is still set. If I do have to go in I will be interviewed by the lawyers then and may or may not be selected.

Our city population is only about 10,000 and we are the county seat. There is only one other town in our county that is even close to our population and that one is about 8,000 I think. Judging by that I think it's probably pretty likely I would get selected. BUT I have a few strong opinions with regards to drunk driving or child abuse so if there are any cases regarding those issues I may be disqualified quickly. Not that I'd want to be disqualified if I would be able to put my opinions into action.

If I do go in I do plan to workout backup care for my daycare kids for the entire day. I've been in the courtrooms at our county courthouse before so at least I won't have to be anxious about where to go.
