My Civic Duty…

by Farley

This is just to say if I suddenly disappear, it may be because I’m sequestered in a motel room somewhere, destined to sit in judgment of some alleged murderer or embezzler. I made the call and do indeed have to report for juty duty tomorrow…

Unless it involves some small producer suing Constellation or another such conglomeration, this probably won’t do me any good. And as I’ve been apartment hunting (with no success so far) in order to move across the Bay and cut down on my terrible commute, it couldn’t come at a more inconvenient time. Not to mention harvest is quickly approaching.

Cross your fingers and clink your glasses that they’ll not want to keep me.
