I have mixed feelings about the graduate assistant. He told God, in the form of Paterno. He told the guy over the campus police. He may have thought that there was nothing else he could do. What I can't fathom is how he could have continued to work with those people.

I don't understand why he didn't tell the ACTUAL police. Even an anonymous tip would have been better.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I don't understand why he didn't tell the ACTUAL police.

This is what always boggled me about the sex scandals in the Catholic church. Don't go to the fucking Bishop.

Yeah, that's where I'm having a throwdown with my hs chem teacher. Mother of boys! She's all hurt that being a mandated reporter, telling your boss is insufficient. I'm coming down hard... -er, tomorrow. Bed now.

Though I did turn my son into a bar tender cause I couldn't reach the bottle. Bad-mom.

Pfft! Unless you also poured a shot of Fernet down your son's throat, you're coping with stress while also teaching CJ valuable bar tending skills. I say awesome-mom.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Suzi, I'm sorry. And shrift's right, you're a good mom.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don;t know how much longer I can deal with waking up jolted into such a state of anxiety. I have a sleep psych session tomorrow, and a call to make to my GP. Neither look to be pretty, but if I'm taking twice the sleep meds because I need to go back to bed every night, something's really wrong.

ita, I'm sorry sleep is eluding you too.

I am trying to think of this as my opportunity to watch over my family. Really, i am just cranky.
