Jury Duty

I just received a "juror qualification form" in the mail. I may or may not be called up for jury duty sometime in the next 3 months. There were two things that made me laugh when I saw this form in my mailbox.

Funny Item #1) Somehow, the County Clerk's office has me in their computer with a middle name of James. Traci James. I kind of like it. Or maybe I should go by TJ. Which do you like better?

Funny Item #2) I actually sat on a jury once. I was about 19. It was a civil case involving medical payments for a slip-and-fall at a grocery store. But that's beside the point. My strongest memory from the trial is that one of my fellow jurors was a very nice looking young man about my age. I remember thinking that jury duty would make a great "how we met" story. Unfortunately, it's been 10 years now and he never called. So that's probably not going to happen. But maybe I will have better luck this time around.
