Quick Post - Forgot My Lunch

Doing this post in a hurry because my day has jam packed with time wasters...

First off, AJ's Kindergarten teacher is exceptionally pretty, now I see why he's adjusting so unbelievably well.

Second, After walking 3/4 of a mile, in this nasty humidty, to the school today; Madison tells me that she has forgotten her lunch.  I was wearing my glasses and not my contacts, and I don't know about all of you, but wearing glasses makes a hot day even hotter.

Anyway, I wanted to tell her that she'd have to starve then and maybe she'd concentrate more on things she needs for school than bugging her sister and watching TV.  I didn't say that though, because she would have cried, a parent would have seen, and next thing you know I'm in jail for child neglect or something.

You might say "Well, Adam, all you have to do is drop it off at school."  If you did say or think that, please slap yourself for me.  One does not just drop off a lunch anymore.  I have to find a parking spot, which is impossible due to teachers and staff parking on the street.  Then I have to lug Bailey around with me because I don't have time to waste pulling out the stroller.  Then you have to show credentials to prove you are in fact said child's father.  After they're done with the DNA testing and cavity search, I then have to sign-in.  I then either get to do the walk of shame through the hallways holding a Barbie lunch bag and a baby until I find her classroom, or, they tell me that they'll have someone come down and get it.  Either way, the whole process takes about 5 minutes and THEN they make you sign out even though most times I haven't left their line of sight.  Finally, most likely I'm walking to the car with a crying, screaming baby only to find out that I was two inches into the no parking zone and got a ticket.

Yeah, all I had to do was drop it off at school.
