Debrief with Harriet in the evening bike/pool/spa regimen. Surprised to take in the notion that the court jury "duty", while scheduled for today and having received word that attendance was not needed, requires a second day -- a concept that seemingly had not been discussed on the phone when the appointment was made. As such, difficult to conceive that this time can be afforded, given the plethora of work still to do before the semester begins. Write a letter requesting that the scheduled date suffice, or that alternately arrangements be made for rescheduling in January 2013. Perhaps ridiculous to think that either option will be considered.
