The Call

I stopped in at the house this afternoon to freshen up before heading to class and grabbed the mail on my way in. One envelope addressed to me had the return address of the Circuit Court on it. I figured that I must have made a mistake in one of the papers that I file with the County for work.

I ripped the envelope open and the first word I read were:

"Dear Juror,
You have been randomly selected to serve as a Juror for the Circuit and District Courts of your County."

My heart sank to my toes...yeah, just what I need...

Further down, the letter read "So you are now among the most fortunate to have received your summons." Fortunate??? Hah!!
