Sooo... I didn't have to report for jury duty after all. Not this time. Which means they will most likely summon me again later this year. Maybe it will happen at a more convenient time... but then again, maybe not.

I also didn't get very sick, after all. I just had a sore throat, basically, which was a bother, but passed after a few days (and several gallons of hot tea with plenty of honey). So I didn't skip any work in the end.

Thanks to which I didn't miss out on the next round of my favorite office project.:/ You know, the one where we are supposed to make phone calls to various newspapers and verify their advertising rates. At first, the boss didn't include me in this at all - knowing how much I detest phone calls - and I felt so grateful I just wanted to hug her and cry. But then another coworker was off sick for a few days, and this is a time-sensitive project, so she ended up splitting her list between the two of us. She gave me the OK to send emails first and only start calling people if they don't respond by next Tuesday, but still... I bet some calls will have to be made. The question is, how many. This is, of course, majorly contributing to my extremely relaxed and peaceful frame of mind.:/

I just feel like it's always something these days: one disaster averted, another looming on the horizon waiting to happen. I am stumbling through it all by focusing on the here and now, but my soul is in hibernation mode. I am weary and cold inside and just want to sleep...
