Moving Up (Over? Around?)



I found out at 9:00 this morning that tomorrow will be my last day in Juvenile Court. Monday morning I report to the main office and get my Superior Court - Felony Trial Division assignment. Who knows where that will be? Not me.

I have no idea if this should be considered a promotion. I guess people try to move up to the trial division and get more experience. I'm a little nervous, but also pretty excited to be doing something new. The stakes are definitely higher over there: If I screw up, someone may get sentenced to life in prison rather than 60 days at a youth bootcamp. That'll give you an ulcer.

I've included this gavel which can be purchased for 85 British Pounds... of course, I'm not a power crazy judge, (redundant term) so there's no need for me to be banging a gavel all over the place.
