16 May
Yesterday, it was hot!
No, I swear! I almost complained, but I flashed back on a few days ago and refrained.
After work I popped round the dojo and picked up Katie and Molly and brought them home, and right when we were getting off the van, the woman behind me tapped me on the shoulder and said:
"You're a really great Mom!"
I preened and glowed, then remembered that in fact, I do not have any children.
For the past few days, when I have gone to the bank to make the deposit, there have been this group of teenagers selling candy as a fundraiser for something.
What the hell has happened with these fundraisers? You rarely see anything good, like World's Finest Chocolate, anymore. Now it's a plain old 75¢ bag of M&Ms for $1.50, and who wants that?
And these teenagers are really obnoxious, too.
They are clustered around the doors like buzzards and they see you and start yelling "Ma'am! Ma'am! Ma'am!!", and if they see you again, they do not think "She ignored me before, perhaps she doesn't want any M&Ms", instead they re-double their efforts, "MA'AM! MA'AM! MA'AM!!!!!!"
One boy yelled "You don't even know what we're about!"
And I thought that after all that, if I were starving on a desert island, I still wouldn't be seen dead buying any candy from these monstrous kids.
As far as I am concerned, the disappearance of Beth is the most calamitous event to occur online since Sage bugged out. I really hope she comes back and password protects or goes e-mail or something. Anything.
Come back soon, Beth!
One year ago today:
I may just be the stupidest person alive.
