Yes, what does Aliza plan to be doing next Monday morning way too early in the AM for her? Jury duty! Jury duty! Yay, jury duty! Since my husband’s complaining I am “working” too much, this might be a good thing for me. Now I’m off to curl up with Patrick Dempsey in “Made of… Continue reading Aliza Does Jury Duty
