This is the school board that was on mic saying that it's loser parents who want to send their kids to school so they can get baked, right?
That was Oakley, which is Bay Area, but not SF. Still not cool.
Timelies, all.
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

-t, lots of health~ma to you dad.
Until now, when the end is maybe-sorta-kinda in sight but there's lots of uncertainty and moving parts, and I'm suddenly sitting in the parking lot of a grocery store trying not to cry because their pharmacy sent an ill-advised auto-text they weren't in a position to follow through on.
I'm sorry and I can relate. I was so stressed in the maybe-sorta-kinda in sight times three weeks ago and whenever the tiniest thing got not according to plan I was very, very frustrated (the place of where I got the second shot and the appointment for it changed twice, once without a notice and a second time to a place that was inconvenient but there was nothing I could do about it).

My kids' high school is having a prom. Seniors only, on a riverboat, dinner (hmmm) and dancing. I've been on one of these riverboats and there's a top deck that is totally open air, so that makes sense for dancing. The dinner part is usually on a lower deck and technically indoors, and of course that's the sus part. I wish it did not include dinner, but I don't see how I can deny my senior the chance to go if she wants to.
I still don't know what I'm going to do about school in person. There's a virtual meeting with the principal tonight. We need to turn in forms tomorrow.
