Sometimes I think I’m pretty clever. One out of nine attempts at humor actually turn out to be funny to someone other than me and I’m validated.
I’ve been having trouble sleeping during the week lately. I tend to stay up to all hours working or “interneting” and really only sleep on Friday night, often falling asleep on my couch obscenely early in the night and staying in bed until 8 or 9am.
My Oliver cat keeps peeing on my laundry. Full on pop a squat and pee. I’m not sure why he’s doing this, but he does it right in front of me. The full set up and everything arranging the clothes and making a little pee nest. It’s gross. And I’ve had to throw away some clothes.
I was bused in the Kansas City Missouri School District in the 1980′s as part of their court ordered desegregation project. Too many white kids at the local school, so they needed to spread us out and mix us up. At one point, I was the only white kid in the entire school. They moved me to my local school when a spot opened so I didn’t have to go so far to school. At one point I took a taxi to school – and tonight I met someone on Twitter who was taxi-ed too! The whole KCMSD thing is top of mind based on their current school closing initiative. Why can’t they get it right? All those abandoned school buildings will be great assets to the communities!
