As we left school yesterday, I ran through the upcoming events which might affect The Pony's classes. He's a forgetful sort. I offered to get him a planner (yeah, that's how out of touch I am with today's youth), and when he snorted and rolled his eyes, I suggested he keep a list of important dates on his phone. I know there's some magic way one can to that. Nope. He declared he didn't need any reminders. Even though senior pictures are coming up, and a meeting for ordering announcements, and the ACT, and the SAT.
"Oh, and tomorrow is club day. I don't remember if any of those meetings affect your schedule."
"Wouldn't it be neat if 'club day' was a day everyone was allowed to bring a club?"
"Well...it would certainly be a day to mark on the calendar."
And a dog show would consist of dogs singing, juggling & telling jokes?
ReplyDeleteOoh! That's exactly right! I want to see THAT kind of dog show!
DeletePony travels his own path. With no need of a club.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure The Pony was thinking more of sitting back to watch the festivities, like at Genius's college on St. Pat's Day.

Or The Simpsons' Whacking Day.
By all means they should bring clubs. Yeah, really!
ReplyDeleteClubs don't whack students. Students whack students.
DeleteI always stayed home on club day.
ReplyDeleteHmm...you must not have had a very big club.
DeleteI would gladly participate in THAT club day.
ReplyDeleteGood to be a joiner!
DeleteYou sure have a lot to be proud of with Pony and genius. Congratulations on the publication. That's a big deal. But so his garnering solar rays to power a phone. Does the boy hire out?
ReplyDeleteBoth of them are too busy being wrapped up in themselves to hire out. Of course, they could be into worse spare-time activities. So I'm not complaining. Much.
DeleteI like it. I would love to carry a club, well, all the time. They won't let me have a gun. I would use it. A lot.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you could make your own club. And a holster for it. You're crafty like that.
