I haven't posted anything for a while. Every time I've been on my computer in the last week I've been using it to transfer avi's of Community and Doctor Who into mp4's so I can watch them on my ipod because since Thursday I have been doing jury duty in Ballarat and I was informed that there would be a lot of sitting around being bored and doing nothing, but Ballarat is small and that means there are not many cases so I have been going up there everyday, watching the induction DVD, going through the empannelling process, not being picked and then coming home around 12 or 1pm. Tomorrow is my last day, unless my name comes out of the hat, then I could be there for an extra day or week or month as the jury peeps before me found out. On the first day I didn't want to get picked because the case was a rape case and as soon as I heard what the case was I felt very very uncomfortable being in that room at that moment with that gross guy sitting there with his black eye judging us (and obviously I wouldn't have been able to remain impartial).
The second day I wanted to get picked though because the case was a civil case and a person was seeking damages for injuries sustained on the job. I also don't want to have spent all this money going up to Ballarat everyday for nothing.
Tomorrow is my last day so hopefully I get picked for something. I have heaps and heaps of things on my ipod to watch now. And I don't want all that file transferring to have been in vain.
One more week until the mid season finale of Doctor Who (in Australia anyway, so shut up if you've already watched it). This past week was a pretty big cliff hanger so I can't imaging what is in store for us.
