Impressionable and On a Damn Jury!
<======has been chosen for jury duty.
WHY ME LAWWWWWD!
No, seriously, why me?
There is no way on God's green earth I will make a good juror.
Like lots of Pisces I'm a very impressionable as well as indecisive and likely to drift off into a daydream at any moment. None of those qualities bode well for jury duty.
I've been impressionable ever since I was little. If two people are disagreeing I believe whomever is speaking at the moment.
Here's an example of a conversation between me, A, and B.
Person A: "B" is a liar!
Me: "B" Why do you lie so much?
Person B: I don't lie, "A" is the liar.
Me: "A" I can't believe you lie like that!!
Person A: I told you "B" is the liar.
Me: Oh that's right...wait...I'm so confused.
When I was in middle school I broke up with my boyfriend *David because *Richard said he liked me more. When Richard asked me why I stopped talking to him, I explained that David liked me more than he did. When he asked me how I knew I realized that I didn't know.
In a courtroom this would translate to me believing both the defense and the prosecution and the defendent and the victim depending on who is talking at the time. If the decision came to a juror vote, I would just raise my hand last and vote with the majority.
Hell if I know if someone's guilty or not. And I don't need that hanging over my head!
I got ADD anyway. Before I sit through a trial I will have to think of things to think about while I'm supposed to be listening to both sides. I don't think they could have picked a worse person to serve such an important civil duty.
I will do my best to be fair (given the bits and pieces I will probably hear) but I'm not too happy about missing the ProBowl in MIA (which is where I originally planned to be). I better meet a hot lawyer or something.

I've longed for the day that I'm ordered to jury duty! Everyone I know has been called, but me ...
You are hilarious. Judging by your impressionable characteristics, the defendant is going to love you (ummm...mistrial) lol.
