In the morning drive to the courthouse. Go in for jury trial. There all day again. Someone claims the bathroom on the fourth floor of the Safety Building looks haunted like from “The Shining” (1980). I agree with their opinion. It is a lighthearted moment in an otherwise very serious day handling a double murder trial.

In the morning drive to the courthouse. Go in for jury trial. There all day. Drive home.

In the morning drive to the courthouse. The homeless man that sleeps in the parking garage is there again this morning. I go in for the jury trial that was supposed to begin yesterday. I am there the rest of the day.
