It seems like they hardly ever exuse people from our county. Matt actually served on juror duty today. He only did one day in 3 months. Now he can't be called again for a year.

I too was a bit excited, I'm sure once I serve jury duty I might join the throngs of those who dislike it, but quite honestly I love how our country operates and jury duty is a part of that. Yeah, that was the last quarter of 2006, hello Vietnam...goodbye jury duty. Maybe someday.

I know they had planned for it in the AM but by the time I went back it was cancelled across texas?

Weirdly weird, if you ask me. My caucus was rather opposite from yours, but then I voted Republican so it wasn't as big a draw by the time our state got to vote. :) We voted twice here too.

I will admit I just had NO IDEA what to expect with the caucas thing, and sadly I have apparently never voted for the Presidential Primary before because I stressed myself out all day trying to figure out how to even vote (we are caucas only, which I didn't understand a single bit). So I hauled itty-bitty baby out in the wintery ick, had to park a few blocks away, and about fainted when I got inside and realized that it was so much more than walking in, voting and walking out. Ok, I did pretty much that, but didn't know it'd involve multiple lines and locations within the school we were at. But I was glad I did it - wasn't really necessary here as it was a blow-out, but I'm glad I played my part. I've been anxiously watching the Texas results and I can't believe how close it has been and how crazy it got! It's fun to hear about it "first-hand" from you!
