That darn sock

If I counted rows correctly, I have 56 total from the end of the gusset to the start of the toe decreases. I'm on row 30 now. I believe I'll finish but as usual there are flies in the ointment. First I haven't hit a lick on MILs lap afghan since we got back. I have to start working on that tonight. Two, I have to report for jury duty on Monday at 8 am. They do not allow 'handwork' needles. Damn. If the freaking TSA allows them, why doesn't a court room WITH armed deputies? The logic of government continues to amaze me. Pray I don't get stuck in there all day Monday and have to keep reporting back. Hopefully they will give us a questionaire and something I say on it will knock me out. Let's see...I am conservative so that should be a big negative, I'm reasonably well-educated--strike two' I listen to talk radio--strike three, pro gun ownership, anti illegal immigration. Gosh I have a smorgasbord on my resume of things that should eliminate me. Writing this blog probably is going to get me too if they ask.
And did I mention (I know I did) I have to report at 8am. UGH.
Here's another thing. As unlikely as it may seem now, if I do get seated on a jury trial that could go on for weeks I will miss my flights for Christmas. Wonder what the policy is on that?
