DOING MY DUTY

September 11, 2006 | Category: Not The Nightly News



Today is CD's Birthday. It is also our wedding anniversary. And it is, of course, another anniversary. We've struggled in the past couple of years to reconcile all this on one day - with complications resting atop like a thin Al Fredo, seeping in.

But this year, it's been made easy for me.

For the first time in my life, I've been called to Jury Duty. Interestingly, in criminal court.

Somewhat fitting, I think.

Happy birthday to CD, and happy anniversary to the two of you. How odd it must be to have the anniversary of a tragedy overlaid on a day of personal celebrations.

I've always wished that I'd be called for jury duty during a period when I wasn't working, so that I could fully participate in the process, rather than worrying about getting back to work.

Hey! It's my anniversary, too. Happy birthday to CD, and happy annivesary to you both.

I've always wanted to go on jury duty ... never been called though.

Happy (?) anniversary though ...

My brother and his wife also got married on his birthday ... made it easy for him to remember when their anniversary is (seriously, that was the reasoning)

Today is also my wedding anniversary. Plus my father in law passed away five years ago tomorrow. Plus the obvious anniversary. It definitely is hard reconciling all of it. Happy birthday to CD and happy anniversary to you both. And, jury duty. Yikes.
