Outing Myswelf at the Squids' School
Well, not so mush at the school but in teh library. Anal-retentive Assistant and Hip Librarian (who did not put the Shakespeare action figure next to the Nancy Pearl action figure) were more than likely privvy to a conversation I had with GSGB.
GSGB was dressing me down about a previous blog entry about not being good at ritual. Shit, I grew up in the Catholic Church - I know ritual. I just don't want to have to plan and organize them. For someone who is chicken shit to dance for a live band, I can lead all sorts of stuff off the cuff. Energy work and ritual included.
Anyway, I was this close to being Misterpher's show-and-tell item. It was supposed to be something that started wiht S and could fit in a sock. I fit in two socks! He was all for it up until I got dressed and was reading teh Girl a story. He changed his mind.
I tried hard to be a grown-up and not take it personally. After how excited he was about me being in his classroom yesterday, I thought I'd go for two and come today. Welp, he backed out. I told him it was his decision and that I would respect it. (It works on Kabloey and i frequently get my way with him, but Misterpher was not swayed.) Kabloey did go into talk to him about letting me go, but also, to no avail.
Kabloey storms out of their room with Misterpher yelling, "You just want to come off as the good kid!" Kabloey blasts back, "No, I'm just being her son!" So, I really had to be a grown-up and let the M-man know I did not send K-boy in to plead my case. Man.
Anyway, the Girl and I brought lunch to the boys and we ate Pizza Bell in the school cafeteria, slipping shit to various kids. Then I found myself in the library wrapping books and outing myself to the hip guy who probably won'tgive a rat's ass and the A-r Ass who prolly will.
Cool.
