I was riding my bike to work today and was struck by two things...not literally. First of all I was struck by how parents picking up/dropping off kids seem to feel that they are entitled to drive like complete assholes. More importantly though as I rode past the school (a jr. high I believe) I saw girls hugging and guys punching eachother in the shoulder and I assumed the it was the last day...what kind of school this is where the last day ends at 9:15 in the morning I don't know but it's not really important. What is important was that I really lamented the fact that as an adult there is no equivalent to the feelings/emotions that the last day of school (and Christmas Eve/Christmas Morning) brought out in me as a kid. I know that I'm not special and it's the same for almost everyone but still, it kind of bums me out.

Our last week of school was half-days cuz of finals. But half day meant 12:15 I think. Not 9:15. Wasn't the school day longer when we were kids? It sure seems that way. Either than or we're just really old fogeys.

"it's drag when you try to scrape people off and they just keep trying to latch back on" Perfect way to phrase it. That's exactly what it's like. What is that about anyway? It's just exhausting, if one gives it any mind.
