I was not a very good pick for them because I can already tell you he looks like a child molester and he will definitely be going to jail.
The prosecutor even asked what does a child molester look like. I really wanted to raise my hand and be like that guy right there.

(In my defense, it was the way you wrote it.)

tgrimes, I'm surprised you got picked. Dh had Jury Duty once and it was close to his time to go back to work. He explained that to the judge, and the judge moved his number. Said, if I need you, I'll have to call you but if I get enough people before you get in there, your good.

Attempting potty training today. So far we’ve had 3 small accidents but he’s willing to sit on the potty each time I ask and wearing underwear so we are headed in the right direction. I don’t plan on leaving the house in the next 3 days so I’m hoping we’ll make some serious progress!

Guyyyyyyyysss I just found out my mom and bros GF got into a huge fight on 4th of July. My sister gave me the tea this morning, I'll give you the high notes. This is the same GF who got her daughter kicked out of Montessori because she couldn't get there on time in the morning. It started because my bro offered to let my dad test drive his new car and daughter was in back seat. GF comes out expecting to leave and my mom tells her they'll be back in a few minutes. GF starts launching in to "why did they take my daughter I don't know if she'll be ok without me, they shouldn't have taken her without asking me." ( ) and my mom tells her "wait a minute, bro is with her, he's her father, he said it was ok and he gets a say, too." And then GF says "do you want me to unleash years of rage on you?" And my mom goes "yeah, sure, maybe you should." because that's just who she is. GF calls my mom a bitch and starts telling her how she's passive aggressive (mom's just plain aggressive when she wants, for the record) and generally gets screamy about random shit. She throws me into the mix because I accidentally cross-contaminated the salad with gluten a few weeks ago (she never said anything to me) and tries to say it was intentional (uh, nope) and my mom tried to stick up for me but she didn't want to hear it. About midway through her screaming bro and my dad show up and bro says nothing, just stands there (as per). When GF gets in the car she says GD and my mom (being an evangelical) tells her to please not say that in front of her. So GF rolls down the window and screams GD over and over as they drive off like a tantruming child. I'm amazed.

GF has a unique, reality-show-ready kind of class.

I’m afraid he’s holding it. You had that issue right? Like he just told me he has to poop in his pants so I ran him over the the toilet and he bawled his eyes out and said he doesn’t want to sit on the potty. So now I’m afraid he’s going to hold it.

Yes, #2 took longer than the 3 days. At first he was just having accidents in his pants. Then he held it for 48 hours. So I increased fruits/veggies and sat him on the potty with Elmo potty time playing. He finally got it and started going #2 on the potty on day 5.

Hi, from the jury room. We’re supposed to hear from 2 victims today. Not delightful. I can only imagine how sacred they are right now.
I really hope I don’t cry. I’m bringing tissues in with me just in case.

They did poll is during jury selection if you would be able to give the max sentence. They defense asked if you would be able to consider probation. Lol fuck no.

Potty training update. He has peed once on the potty. He was so proud of himself so I thought the momentum would stick. Nope. He’s had about 2 or 3 more accidents since. Still hasn’t pooped. He loves sitting on it and flushing it. I have done a ton of laundry. I’m ready to start drinking.
