Yesterday, I spent a vast majority of my day sitting in the juror room at the county courthouse. Sometimes I feel like I have a part-time job as a juror. I receive summons non-stop. I’m randomly selected way too often! I’ve served on a jury in the federal court system once. And I’ll admit it was actually pretty interesting. Now that I’m working from home and finishing up my 2nd master’s I was less than enthused to receive another summons for the county’s criminal court system. After sitting in a room for more hours than I’d like to remember (I read three months worth of SHAPE magazine; the Internet connection was terrible), all of the cases they had for the day that were expected to be jury trials were settled and everyone got to leave! I made $14.oo for the day. Thank goodness I’m salaried and my employer will be paying me! I think the most fun I had was the fact that I had to dress up, since I were jeans or athletic wear almost all the time for work.
Have you ever served on a jury before?
On to more exciting stuff, how about a giveaway? You can bet that my bag was stuffed with snacks yesterday. Eating and magazine reading ended up being my “job” for the day. Among my snack’s were Funky Monkey Snacks! I had received a sample box from the wonderful folks at Funky Monkey (thank you Jennifer) to review.

For a girl who really isn’t a fan of fruit, I enjoyed all of the flavors. They tasted great and were the perfect late-morning or late-afternoon snack. This snack was crunchy and kept me tied over until my next larger meal. You can also definitely tell that these snacks are made from real fruit. They tasted like fruit instead of a freeze-dried fruit snack!
