The first day in forever that my mood has risen and stayed above neutral, yet the musical mood is running towards #Wolfsheim and Gregorian chants (thank you, YouTube).

Weird college kids are the best
This banner in my daughter’s school is... confusing... hilarious...
and apparently I’m *that parent* who laughs out loud and takes a photo of it.
No fair! This 5th grade “move-up night” is an orientation for the parents. No one told me I’d be sitting getting oriented. Trapped! 😠
