We're going to SF for a wedding and the Zmayhems have graciously offered to babysit while we're at the ceremony.

Wait, so who will be taking pictures?

Um, I mean, that's so great! Going to a wedding at the other coast and having not just wonderful babysitters, but also a baby only a bit older to interact with. I love that.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

She'll probably still go, just show up right before and leave right after. She did this to our other friend last week with a SITC thing. Didn't make it to the snacks and tv marathon hanging with the girls bit. Showed up 5 min before the movie and left right after (I wasn't there, so I'm not sure exactly what the excuse was).

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The wedding's on a Friday (08/08/08 - the groom is Chinese), so we'll have most of the rest of the weekend free to hang with the SFistas.

Dad is out of surgery, according to my mom, "just fine." That's one hurdle done.

Tomorrow the teacher's union is promoting a walkout. I'm sort of a sub, but still a union member and, most importantly, I'm returning here next year. What would you all do? Walkout?

Kat, that's good news. My father was up and walking around within 24 hours after his quadruple bypass surgery, so it's a good bet that you'll be able to talk to him soon.

As for the walkout, I'd probably do what the other union members at the school do.

Except she also got a cut over her right eye somehow and it's swollen. So she sort of looks like she got into a bar fight in Honolulu.

Great news, Kat!
