Please guide them through a quick deliberation...

My hubby's had jury duty last Thursday, Friday, and he went back in today. They've been deliberating since around 10 this morning. He just called and said they're still deliberating...here I was hoping that he was telling me that he was on his way home as it's almost 6 pm. He jokingly said not to wait up. Then, he added that if they didn't reach a verdict by 8 tonight they'd have to come back tomorrow. I need him to come with me tomorrow to Baby D's specialist appt with the ENT...so I'm really hoping that they can reach a verdict quickly. UGH! Please help them Abba, reach a verdict quickly so that he can come home to his family and we can have some family time tonight. I know..I'm selfish. It has been nice having him close by to come home and have lunch with me each day though...it not only breaks up my day, but it's nice to share a few minutes with him that we don't normally get together.
