Just register yourself four or five times over for the class and then make a "group". Easy.

lol....

risky sorry to hear about your cousin. Xmas is hard when someone in your family past away around it (my dad died right after thanksgiving, and my hubbys brother died on new years day---age 41), my family still has a hard time and its been 25 years (man didnt think it had been that long yet).

happier thoughts.

hubby had the day off so we went out for lunch---chinese style. and then his office called even though he had a vacation day

so with a big lunch---no dinner report (yeah I knew you would be waiting for that right).
and that dang migraine has been trying to hit me again.....blast it anyways!

graduation is highly over rated.

meteor showers are cool---when I lived in idaho we could pretty quickly get away from the city and see them....and if it was during the summer the skies were usually clear--here, cloudy more clouds and yep more clouds...so no meteor showers, more likely SNOW showers!

someone write out my xmas cards for me....they need to get mailed real soon (bad grammar for emphasis).....argh.

Thanks cosy, wake is tonight and funeral tomorrow and I am not good in those situations.
The weather here is clear, but frigid. I had to go to court today as a witness for a car break in 2 years ago. It is the second time, first time the defendant didn't show up until after his case was called, but was still allowed to walk out with a trial date set for today. Today I get there and find out the DA should have called me saying that his lawyer's mother had passed away and it is continued until February. The kicker is that all you get paid as a witness is $6, which you have to fill out a 2 page form to get, so I just say screw it. I got my phone back which was stolen and lost a $30 case, it has cost me more to go to testify than my loss, what a system.

snow....you may keep it.


Risky: been there, done that, but I got mugged when I lived in Idaho....(at the mall--they caught it all on the security camera)....they didnt get anything, I got a bum knee (twisted it while fighting with the guy)....I had to go to court twice--and this was back in the '90's...I got paid $8 for my trouble each time and didnt fill out anything ......must be the government that you are dealing with. (the kids who attacked me wanted to get gas money so they could return to arizona, well they would up being convicted--no idea what sentence they got...and I still have the article from the newspaper about a 'victim fighting back' )....so it ended ok for me, though my knee continues to cause me grief

finally got the last xmas list---now I need to go and finish up the last 2 people on hubbys list

lol Yes I prefer to solo projects. That way they get done to my specifications and in the timely fashion that I want them done in.

I wish we had snow here. Instead it is 40 degrees F. oO It was 16 F here yesterday. WTF!?!?!

Never had to appear before a court as a witness before. Did get called for Jury Duty last year but I had class so I got an exemption. Which was good because who would want to listen to a 21 year old?

Wooo break.

Go to Michigan if you want snow. Keep it away from me damnit.

I remember my jury duty 2 years ago. I just sat for 8hrs in the waiting area, bored out of my mind. I want my 8hrs back!

We are suppose to get a good snow tomorrow night. That would be nice imo.

Beach boys, don't have that on my iPod. So no worries there.

hubby had jury duty....sat there until like 2pm at which time they said all the cases were either settled or had picked.....got paid a pittance for it as well.....I have never been picked for it, and there is a pretty good chance it will never happen as my dad was a lawyer---and they dont usually pick people from their family's (eg conflict of interest type of thing).

no more snow....send it to .....florida, perhaps my mom would like to see some, I do not.

dont own an ipod, nor a cell phone....etc...I do have a portable cd player around here somewhere--------and I like to listen to the radio when I drive, so no need for it either. (and no need for a cell phone as I am usually at home near the phone....if not I am probably driving--shouldnt talk then, or in a doctor appointment---cant talk then, so what's the point???????)

I got my xmas cards done WWWOOOOOOTTTT!! still have to mail them (and some gifts too) so a trip to the post office is in my near future ......not looking forward to it either.

Ya well, I am friends with a bunch of cops. Wish I could tell them that so that they wouldn't pick me. But even still, I would have to go sit there and wait for them to tell me to go home. I have better things to do for sure.

Merry Christmas to you Etta. About 5 years ago I had to serve on a federal jury for a week.
I actually made out good on that one as I got paid by my company and the gov plus travel expenses.

The case was over illegal guns sales. The defendant was buying guns in Cambridge, MA and selling them to get money for drugs, we found him guilty.

Jury Duty. If you don't get pick to be on the jury, they will just make you sit in the waiting room.
