1:09 p.m. ET: Juror question: Did you enjoy having sex with Alexander?
"Yes, very much," said Arias.
1:08 p.m. ET: Juror question: "After you snatched the gun off the shelf, did you do anything to the gun, such as cock it, flip off the safety, manipulate a slide or anything prior to it going off?"
"I don’t even think I would know how to do that, so the answer is I don’t know, probably not. I just grabbed it and pointed it is what I remember," said Arias.
1:06 p.m. ET: Juror question: How did Alexander's anger escalate after you shot me?
Arias said he was grabbing at her and her clothes, and he threatened her life.
Juror question: Did he chase you after you shot him?
Arias said she can't say, because she doesn't remember.
1:05 p.m. ET: Juror question: "If you were scared of what Travis was capable of doing, why would you ever let him tie you up?"
"When that occurred, he was in a very good mood and he wasn’t displaying any signs of agitation, and that was the Travis that I liked and was not afraid of. When he did begin to get angry, my warning bells started to go off and I would begin to get cautious, for lack of a better term, but he hadn’t displayed any of that. We just woke up, we were getting along…and again, they were loose enough to wiggle out of so I wasn’t stuck there at his mercy, so to speak," said Arias.
1:04 p.m. ET: Juror question: Have you had firearm training?
Arias said, No she has never fired a gun before June 4, 2008.
Juror question: If Alexander lunged at you why didn't you just move out of the way?
Arias said, she did have time to think.
1:01 p.m. ET: Juror question: "During these altercations, why didn’t you just scream in hopes that someone would hear you and help you?"
"I did scream. I wasn’t thinking of someone helping me. For example, I screamed when he threw me on the floor and started kicking me. I wasn’t able to scream when he had his hands around my wind pipes. And I’m sure I was screaming on June 4," said Arias.

12:59 p.m. ET: Juror question: Is there anyone else who knows about your memory issues?
"I don’t think I have memory issues," said Arias.
12:58 p.m. ET: Juror question: What are some other reasons you introduce KY personal lubricant into the relationship besides pain?
Arias said they used it, because it also facilitated their activities.
12:56 p.m. ET: Juror question: Do you always have foggy memory if someone challenges you?
Arias said it has gotten better, but she has had the problem since the Fall of 2007.
12:54 p.m. ET:

12:51 p.m. ET: Juror question: Did Alexander's roommates ever hear your fights with him?
Arias said she was not sure if they heard them fighting.
12:49 p.m. ET: Juror question: How do you remember so much from the days you had memory lapses?
Arias said the memory lapses only occurred when he got angry.
12:48 p.m. ET:
Juror Question: Several times while testifying about the abuse by Travis, you have made comments like, ‘As I understand it now’ and ‘I’ve come to realize.’ How has this realization come about?
"Because about five years have passed, the further away I get from the situation, the more perspective I have. Whereas before I constantly made excuses for myself. Now I understand that the things that occurred were not OK. And forgiving him is different than continually putting up with it," said Arias.
12:46 p.m. ET: The judge is on the bench, and Arias is on the witness stand.
12:33 p.m. ET: Testimony should begin in a few moments.
