I thought I'd finally reached the end of the week without having to do jury duty. I made the phone call last night to the automated service and low and behold.... "you have been scheduled for jury service... please report at 8:30 AM tomorrow morning". Son of a bitch!
Not the best timing, to say the least.
Not only did I have to stay ALL day, but I was transfered from the El Monte court house to the Alhambra court house and then to the East Los Angeles court house. Seriously. At 4:00 PM, they called us in to let us know that the selection process was not going to take place at that time.... no... we all have to come back Monday. *ARGHHHH*
The week from hell continues.
The good news is I found an apartment I like. Not only did I find it, but I got it! I met with the woman tonight after my day from hell... and she liked me right away. She said she won't do the credit check if I can fax her the last two months of my pay stubs. No big deal... I was sure I'd be able to find them. She said I can give the deposit this weekend and pick up the keys to slowly start moving my stuff in. I don't have to pay for half of December... just a week and a half. So, that is cool... I really like this place. It's just like 10 blocks down the street if that. I'm glad I'm not moving too far out of this neighborhood. I definitely like the area and like being close to work.
That was a huge relief. Now, I get to think about what I need to buy and how cute I can fix it up. *smile*
I'm going to have to work a bit from home tomorrow because being out of the office for a day or two totally puts me behind. Plus, my Q1 action plan for 2004 is due on Monday. I was planning on doing it today at work but my civic obligation called. Hopefully I won't get picked for the jury on Monday. My fingers are definitely crossed on that one.
Tonight, surprise... I can't sleep and have had thee worst headache all frickin day.
Tomorrow, company holiday party. YAY! (said with a sarcastic tone)
