So Far Away

At had us pose for this pic 

up at Aunt R's place on Lake Huron 

so he could put it up in his dorm. 

"Don't turn around," he called out 

as we walked up the dock, 

"don't look back."

College Kid

We managed a hurried 'we-fie' with At when we dropped him off at College yesterday. 

He's bunking with his best friends from school and so excited and ready for this. 

Don't look at the crumpled up lunch napkins on the table in front of me...

I may have decided to get the crying over with over lunch 

instead of at the opening convocation 

so as to not terrify the other parents...

He Takes his Spike Lee Seriously

Here and Now

It's past 2:00 a.m. and I'm about to try get some sleep for a string of errands and a coffee date with a binder sister (Z) in the morning.

It's just that I'm trying hard to eke out a few more minutes here because I just know that my dreams are going to be an apocalypse-themed torment. What with threats of "fire and fury as the world has never seen" and having read a bunch of climate change poetry for a new class prep.

If you're wondering about the best place to take cover in case of a nuclear fallout, I've got you covered.

Grandparents are so brave

they'll even take naughty puppies to the bank

(Parents aren't doing so well:

Hurry home, Huck!)

I keep looking

for the secret.
