I had a dream that I was rushing to catch my plane. I made it, and I was heading back to my usual economy seat when someone guided me to an ultra first-class spa experience instead. I've gotta say, as anxiety dreams go, this one resolved wonderfully.
Go everyone getting their jabs!
meara, I'm glad your peg leg is doable, if not delightful.
While getting a four-year degree was a huge thing in my family, I can sort of understand teenagers being ambivalent about it these days. There's so much expense and work and no guarantee that it'll lead to secure, decently paying employment afterward.
The part I don't understand is not wanting to get on with it -- whatever "it" is. I was dying to get out of town and out of the house and out of high school (in reverse order, I guess). And I had a great home life and a fine time in high school!

Yeah, same on all counts. I was so ready to move away!
Same here, and yet my older son would have stayed home and played video games forever if I had allowed it. Younger son isn't the most ambitious person either, but his wife is so that helps. He has at least always worked.
I was outta there! My parents were great, but I didn't even stay home until I was 18.
Me too. I could not wait to get out of the house and into the world.
I got my flu shot yesterday and then couldn't figure out why my arm hurt this morning.
Is Halloween considered a bad thing in Jewish culture or is ltc's school just being super weird about it for no reason?
I mean, it's a pagan holiday, no? I understand any organization based on any other religion not wanting to celebrate it.
I guess that's probably it. I wanted to bring in some Halloween lollipops for ltc's classmates, which is allowed on other occasions. I went to public school and we always dressed up on Halloween at school.
We dressed up in Catholic school. It was one day we didn't have to wear our uniforms.
A woman I rode up on in the elevator this morning was wearing a fascinator. I'm not sure if that was meant to be a Halloween costume, or even if it counts as a costume.
