• Well gang, day after tomorrow is my 21st anniversary.  Yup! 21 years with the same man.  Is that awesome or what.  I probably wouldn’t think it was so great if I didn’t have such a terrific old man, but I can truly say that I’m still in love with him and from the look in his eye, he with me.  About a month ago he asked me what kind of plans we should make for our 25th anniv.  I just looked at him and said, don’t you think we should get through the 21st ,22nd, 23rd and 24th first?  Not that I think anything drastic is going to happen between now and then.  I thought it was rather sweet of him, but then on second glance, maybe he figures we can plan big for the 25th and skip everything in-between!!  Sneaky sucker. lol. 

  
  

  I got called for petit jury duty down at the capitol.  One step below grand jury, thank god I didn’t get called for that.  I don’t mind going, but they have sent five survey forms to fill out.  It’s getting redundant and more than a little ridiculous.  What did they do with the first four I sent?  They’re all the same.  I’ll get about $25. for mileage and $40. a day.  So at least I won’t go broke doing my “civic duty.”  Has anyone out there done petit jury duty?  I wonder what kind of trials they do?  Time to do some research I guess.

  
  

  I put FlashFiction on my Sites I Read list, if you get the chance go by.  Here’s a sample of the insanity:

  That’s last Wednesdays entry. There’s a lot more, all of it short, creative, and completely off the wall.  It’s like reading a Gary Larson comic strip.  Hell, for all I know it may be Gary Larson, who can tell?
