I just got back from getting my morning tea (yes I’m drinking tea now), and I couldn’t help noticing a woman ranting and raving to herself in front of my office building. By the paper bag that was sitting on the stairs, I’m guessing she was just released from the jail down the street. I noticed right away that she wasn’t dressed as your average transient, crazy person. She was rather put together in new looking jeans, matching clothes complete with hat—she looked more put together than myself to tell you the truth. If she’s not crazy, she has one of those blue tooth thingies on her ear, and whoever she is talking to, she sure isn’t too happy with a “Mary Ann.” May be Mary Ann got her in jail, or quite possibly Mary Ann forgot to pick her up from jail… Either way, from the few words I did overhear I’m almost certain that Mary Ann is going to get her ass kicked!
I just got a call from my son Andrew. Andrew is in middle school, and is studying Family Life. Poor boy has to have all of his diagrams of male and female reproductive systems signed by a parent before turning in his homework. He will give them to me usually in the car and have me sign them at the last minute. He will make a line on the top and tell me “sign here, mom” hoping that I won’t actually see what he is studying, I’m guessing. Poor boy is a little embarrassed. Well, he needs some more papers signed, so I will now have to make a special trip and meet him at the school so I can sign more embarrassing diagrams. Oh joy!
I am counting the days until school is out. SIX MORE DAYS!!! I don’t know who is more anxious, me or my son.
I’m supposed to get a hefty check in the mail from ex-husband today. Child support in NJ is not sending money for June either, stating that CA should, but by law, they “can’t”… Oh well.. Who needs them. I hope I never do again.
Oh well, I got to run and meet my son and his diagrams. I hope everyone is enjoying a happy hump day!!

You have to sign his homework? That's weird. Just the sex ed stuff...not the math, right? Weird weird weird. --Cin
I hope that everything works out easier doing it direct with Hubby for you! Poor Andrew... it kind of sucks when you have to draw naughty parts and have mom sign them! LOL
be well,

What kind of hat did Mary Ann have on? I always comment on older ladies hats at CB on Sundays. They seem to wear their Sunday finest to the restaurant. I am smilin' thinking about your son not wanting you to know he is learning sex ed. Funny.
Love,lisa
Hope you had a good hump day.
