The Verdict Is In - Scott's Back To Work

Scott went back to work today after two weeks of being a member of a jury. He was summoned for jury duty over two weeks ago and was chosen for the trial. He was pretty excited about it, because the whole solving a case thing really is interesting for him.

So, for the past two weeks he has been sitting as a juror from 8:30am to 1:30pm. Pretty sweet gig right when college basketball championship tournaments are on. We loved having him come home so early and be here all evening. It was great.

He was not allowed to tell me ANYTHING about the case. Everyone asked him and he never said a word. He didn't watch the news or read the newspaper either. He was a very strict juror.

Finally, on Friday the trial ended and he called at 5 pm to say that he had to stay until they decided on a verdict. So, at 6:30 pm I left, by myself, to a beautiful and very formal wedding dinner at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. His place setting with his name was sitting empty right next to me - he never made it. I had a fabulous time anyway. He got home at about 10 pm that night and finally told me some details.

So, the excitement of the case and Scott coming home early is over and now he's back to work late on a Sunday night. Yuck.
