Sweet Fancy Moses!
Suzi, heaps and heaps of love to you. This is a big deal and it's a big deal to CJ and you are right to be concerned and to make sure some action is taken.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I took Olivia to our new skate park on Monday. She watched the boys on skateboards and promptly asked for one. She also asked for my phone so she could take some pictures.
Suzi, I think letting CJ try to handle the first attempt at dealing with this issue is a good idea as is your plan to follow up on it. I would hope that the kid likes CJ enough to stop being a dick when it's pointed out to him that he IS being a dick.

asked for a skateboard or skater boy? Ah memories of being a Junior in highschool and having a crush on 8th grade (SCANDAL!!) skater boys. They were oh so adorable cute with their floppy hair on top and shaved sides, baggy preppy clothes and hunched shoulders.

Because books.
My brother sent me this link, a piece written by a female lieutenant commander in the Navy. Well worth reading, I think, especially today.

Thanks for linking that, Amy.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Dick Van Dyke's Life Saved by Porpoises
American actor Dick Van Dyke claims that his life was saved by porpoises. Van Dyke fell asleep on his surfboard one day, and when we woke up, he could no longer see the shore. He asserts that porpoises pushed him back to land:
“I woke up out of sight of land … and I started paddling with the swells and I started seeing fins swimming around me and I thought, ‘I’m dead!’”, he said
“They turned out to be porpoises [and] they pushed me all the way to shore. I’m not kidding.”

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why have you not posted since I left home? Now I'm forced to recite inanity.
Good inanity--I found my work ID, quite by accident while I was filling my car with gas. Whew. Because the apartment search very much wasn't working out. Since I also found my lost earrings, all I'm missing now is the cap for my flash drive. I know I shouldn't have bought one that small, but it was really cute.
Why can't I find a place that serves breakfast potatoes? I want some bad, with cheese and salsa for brekkie. I'm tired of cake. I'm trying a jalapeno bagel. I don't expect it to end well.
Where can I find good flavoured black tea bags? What's a well-recommended brand?
