Maria, I'm crossing fingers and toes that the flooding/cleanup is as minimal as possible.
CJ is missing school today to work with the local Life Flight crews. Life Flight is doing training for their folks and invited the ARP team to participate and get a better understanding of how they can work together. I wonder if he will get to go up in one of the copters.
{{Maria}} Whatever you need. If that's stiff upper lip ~ma for now, you got it.
(((Maria))) I don't even know what to say--you know I'm thinking of you and your family.
I was supposed to be driving to Ithaca tomorrow, but I'm uncertain whether the roads will be safe. The road from here to there is mostly through a state forest, and it looks like it's alongside water. Not too many towns around there, so probably not a high priority.
Maria, honey. I'm thinking of you, love.
Dear Universe, the following people are not on your route anymore: Maria and her entire family. Also, all buffistas. Go elsewhere. Like Pluto.
And good work, district, letting her off on a block with no sidewalks, both-sides parking, and a company with big trucks in and out of their parking lot (and usually blocking the street!) all the day.
Amy, the bus driver could have just let her out at a random location, saying "'Get off my bus. I have other things to do and I'm trying to get home.'" [link]
The school system says this person is no longer a bus driver. I don't know why she's still employed.
Oh my god, Ginger. What the fuck?
Dang. If I were one of the parents I'd be asking the principal if he/she would be firing the driver immediately, or if I'd have to bring the police into it and press child endangerment charges.
