Spring Break
When I was young, Spring break was a time of fun and friends.
Later, it became a time of madness and mayhem. Years of being
"The Raiders of the Girls Gone Wild."
Spring break now is the time to hang with the youngest daughter for a week. This week is mine, and unlike last year, the older daughter did not fly out to be with us, so for the week it is Youngest and me. Actually, it is a pretty good deal. Part of the time I get to work from home and she gets to hang around and be lazy, something that almost never happens for her. Some of the time she comes to the office and spends the day racing around in her Razor scooter, trying to beat the maze that is our cubicle hell in record time. That one is a hoot, all you can see over the cubes is this high speed blonde head.
Later this week I am taking a day off and we are going to head to golden gate park for the day. The weekend is Easter, wed is Passover. (Wife is Jewish, I am congerationalist, and our solution is to celebrate max holidays, which is just fine by the kids)
All in all, a very family wise, Dr James Dobson (may his pinched face and priggish carcass rot in purgatory for all time) approved school break.
I am sure that many of you are having the same kind of week. Bless your hearts and let's lift a glass of Root Beer in toast to all of us.
But, don't you all miss the wet tee shirt contests, the all night drinking, the erotic banana eating? Be honest, some small part of all of us just wants to get drunk and screw on a beach, sand up the crack and all.
Such is the mystery of existence.
