I have to find out if the speech is going to be shown on line. Brendon is going to work with me a couple days because there are no Senior classes. The Freshman - Juniors are taking 'practice' FCAT tests so they can spend the rest of the year focusing on how to ace the test and make their school look good. So the entire Senior class has to be on lock down in the auditorium to prevent them distracting the underclassmen taking the practice tests. Yes, it is insane. But I get an assistant at the office a couple days. It shouldn't be tough to find the speech on line, if not it will likely be shown on the news channels.
edit because coherency in the morning is tough
I think it will be linked at the White House web site, available for streaming.
GAH! Laura! He's a senior? UNpossible!
I think my favorite part of the speech transcript is the bit where he talks about how the country was built by people who started out as students just like you, and didn't quit when things got tough: the people who fought in the Revolution and founded the country; the people who lived through the Depression and fought in WWII; the people who fought for civil rights and put a man on the moon; and the people who started Google, Facebook, and Twitter.
What kind of Socialist Rhetoric is this???
I think C-SPAN streams online, too.
GAH! Laura! He's a senior? UNpossible!
ACK!
GAH! Laura! He's a senior? UNpossible!
I know! With the driving, and the partying, and the college girls, and stuff.
But Laura! It can't be true! Wasn't he just duct taping his brother's head last week?
He would still try that one if he could get away with it. Bobby doesn't crave his attention quite as much as he used to. Of course he is in High School now too! I be old.
Nah, Laura, you're as young as ever. It's your kids who are old!
I have no interest in being at work today. And I forgot the big boss was still out on vacation, so no big announcement until tomorrow!
NILLY!! DRESS!!! WEDDING!!!!
That may have taken all my energy for the day.
Two days at the Open was good. Not happy to be back at work.
Both excited and terrified for school starting tomorrow. Seriously.
My dad is getting itchy to go back home, and I do not blame him. Sadly, I do not think my mom is well enough to swap out with him and I do not feel great about putting mac into a new afterschool program after just 3 days of adjusting to school. I guess we will talk after tomorrow and see what we think can reasonablly be done. At some point he has to deal with it just being the two of us again, AND a new afterschool. just facts.
IODadN - he steam cleaned all the carpets and upholstered furniture in the house yesterday - RAWK! I moved mac back to his bed last night, dad took over my room, and I am on an aerobed on mac's floor. I am taking that as a half step back to normalcy.
Nilly, you are going to be a beautiful bride!
Unrelatedly, I have a crush on TJ Thyne from Bones
Oh, my, yes. I have quite the Thing for him.
Commute took 1.5 hours this morning. That sucks hairy donkey balls.
