Is this really who we are?
Thursday, July 2, 2009 at 10:33AM 1. Today, on the way to work, I passed a school bus that had a hanging tag in the back window saying that the bus had been checked for sleeping children. Seriously? We need to proclaim that we did this? Don't all bus drivers check their bus before getting off or driving somewhere?
2. At 2:26am I received a text message that my best friend's wife's water broke. I've finally come to terms with the fact that most of my friends are/are getting married (including the fact that I'm married). Now we're becoming parents? I have plenty of acquaintances and pseudo-friends who are parents, but no one as close to me as this person - and now he's going to be a dad. I cried on the way to work today, just thinking about it (tears of joy). They live out of state, but I'm going to be in their area tomorrow and Saturday so I'm hoping she has the baby before I head back home so I can meet the little gal.
3. My job allows no casual wear, ever. No Casual Fridays, etc. But today is a half-day and the last day before a full three-day weekend (a total rarity here), so I'm wearing jeans. So there, take that. I'm a rebel, that's who I really am. (Okay, really, I'm really not. But sometimes I wear the pants.)
