((This is going to be FUN! :) ))

Well, Sandi, now that the first week is almost over, and you've
survived it, is this new job still fun?

Wellllll...... :)

I have to say that it is a bit overwhelming. I joked about being pointed
toward the courtroom and having them say "go," but I didn't think it would
really happen that way! Still, I haven't passed out, passed gas, or thrown
up in court yet (although I did tuck my suit skirt into my pantyhose once,
but fortunately caught it!), so I consider my first week a rousing success.

One thing that is shocking is that with a lot of misdemeanors, I don't even
see so much as the warrant until the case is called for trial. There I sit
looking at the warrant and deciding who to call and what to ask them on the
fly. Even with that, I've gotten some convictions already! Yay for me.

On the other hand, since I'm in juvenile and family court, I have felt sorry
for some of the kids I'm supposed to be "against." It's possible I may be
too soft-hearted to prosecute, but I'm going to give myself a chance to
build some tough skin. But one thing is for sure: I've definitely chosen
the right field.
