Friday marked the first official day of the hot Texas summer! What is a better way to celebrate than with a day at the beach? Thanks Ruth for joining me, even if we did get rained on a tad! I had a blast and if you decide you want me to go back and see if I can get our waiter's phone number for you, just let me know ... I think he would oblige. ;)
I reported for jury duty Monday afternoon and skimmed by not getting chosen to sit on a trial for aggravated robbery. So did Shane Battier of the Houston Rockets, who was in the same jury panel of 65 Harris County residents. Can you believe that only 18 - 22% of people who receive jury summons actually serve their civic duty?
With jury duty came a new appreciation for my nice commuter buses. I rode the Metro from work to downtown and it was a whole new ballgame. Gone were the plush seats and clean floors, replaced by disgruntled riders cursing out the driver and hard plastic seats. I am proud to say I made it back fine though, even if I did have to stand on the bus ride home to Cypress ... for 45 minutes in bouncy traffic. Another reason to miss College Station and the good Aggie gentlemen who always offered ladies their seats on the bus (even if it was after getting evil stares).
