Ugh, msbelle. I'm sorry. Will he be playing tennis just at school? Because if he does any local tournaments you might run into my nephews. I hope he actually likes it and it turns out to be a good thing.
This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

I suspect because the guy who's in charge of our office tech support heard all the cool kids were doing it.
Oh, god, I think that's what drives a lot of our developers, too. "The Cloud! It's the next big thing! Our customers will love it, and if they don't they're just behind the times and not cool like us!" Never mind the fact that a lot of our customers work in rural areas with spotty-to-nonexistent Internet connection. But tell this to the develolpers, and they all get this look of "Who doesn't have good Internet? Why kind of yahoos are we dealing with? Tell them to update their systems and leave us alone."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Everyone loves the cloud! It's so... secure? or reliable?? or something else good?????
I did love taking tennis for gym in high school, but not to the exclusion of graduation requirements.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I would have loved tennis for gym if it had been an option in high school. I also would have enjoyed a fine art class of some sort.

And scalable! That's another word that makes tech execs giddy.

Yeah, he has NEVER played tennis. I have no idea what he is on about, but he will be playing for at least one trimester. Highschool, unlike all other schools in the district, is on a trimester system. I have his schedule, we have orientation Thurs night, and he will never do anything official at school without me again. All the support staff are so excited to meet him now.
