(News of the Weird, just got a psychotweet from someone calling themself "Justice4Jodi" - nuff said, just learned the block feature on twitter :great
Ok so got in the courtroom thinking I was late but there were tons of other people in there for other cases. Looked like several hispanic defendants in stripes and the odd sounds of people speaking English with the murmur of Spanish translators going on. Several attorneys on both sides, families sitting all around the court. A few media people I recognize but odd. I went to my seat on the second row then saw JM sitting 3 seats down on the front seat.
As I was sitting there with a purse full of custom M&M's , some with his name printed on them I SO wanted to approach him but ...Aw He!! no! Not after the recent events.
So shortly thereafter people started trickling in and Nicole the VA sat behind him and Aunt Heather came in, sat next to Juan and started chatting. I actually wanted to speak with Nicole about another project I'm cooking up so scooted over then Juan turned around as I moved over and smiled at me and said Hi so I just blurted out "I have M&M's in my purse with your name on them" and he chuckled and said "I want to see them". So I scooted back and grabbed them and grabbed the light blue ones and handed them to him and he immediately started chuckling and said something like "these are great!". Then I showed him the "Well it's your fog" ones and he laughed again. Nicole the VA was really having fun with them too..she thought they were hilarious! Then I showed the dark ones to Heather that said "Justice 4 Travis" and just handed them out.
Juan M. then asked if he could keep the bag of the light blue ones and I said "of course!" (figured the person who sent them would be thrilled to know he kept the bag--and I had more at home..Just brought about half as I only had that much room in my purse!). And gave the rest to the fam who took them in the Victim room. Later a journalist wanted to take a pic of them and I just said "sorry, already gave them away". Had it been one of my fave journalists I would have told them I had more at home they could photo but..............
So that's the M&M melt in your mouth beginning to my day. :seeya:
