We grabbed Burger King and shared the hash browns on the way in this morning. I thought I was further behind than I was, but we actually got there a little bit early. Marivic came by my office and asked if she could give Muad’Dib a treat, and then she set down a huge bag of Pup-Peroni just for him. I told her to keep it downstairs and we would come visit her every day, but she said to keep it because she just loved animals. It was a reasonably productive day after that. I did have to go downstairs to help Peyton and Heaven with some goofy OneDrive shares at one point, and I had a phone call with one of the IT guys at Garland before lunch.
I wasn’t super hungry, so we grabbed a small box from Taco Bell. It was a bit warmer out, but still reasonably nice. Muad’Dib had to poop when we got back to the office and there was a big proglottid squirming around in it, so I had Summer go by the vet for some dewormer. The afternoon was really quiet after that, but we eventually got back home where Summer was making her Polish sausage and sweet potato bake.
Eaddie had left with the Model Y because they still hadn’t fixed the Murano tire, and she had run the Pathfinder too low on fuel to trust it for a trip to Tech. I took Muad’Dib on an early run, visited Dad, and then came back to the girls sitting down for dinner. They talked about the drama surrounding Chance and how the school board was going to have a hearing to determine his fate. I didn’t have a clue who Charlie Kirk was when the news broke, but it took less than a minute to decide he was an incredible asshat completely undeserving of any controversy. Chance has always been one of the best teachers I’ve ever known, and the district would be foolish to lose him.
It’s shocking to find how many people do not believe they can learn, and how many more believe learning to be difficult.
