Cool! So time and place tomorrow? Anyone else free?

V - is "defiance disorder" a nice way of saying "spoiled brat"?

I'm open on the time. 9ish? 10ish?

From research it seems that it's not something that can be changed. Medication makes it a little better.

But I wonder why just being a jerk became a personality disorder. part of the behavior is a desire to see others get angry. So caregivers and teachers are suppose to stay unemotional.

So Veronica, can you take a mental health day tomorrow??

We're going to meet at 10:00 at the Lunardi's parking lot in Danville, on Railroad. So far it's just me and aka_kim as the slacker-IT-heroes. So there's still room on the bus for more....

I wish. But with this class if I have "sub off the street" I need to leave lots of worksheets to keep them busy.

I don't do worksheets as a regular thing, so having a sub requires a lot of extra prep work.

But a brewery would be a good choice. They'll have that baseball stuff on TV for you.

"A brewery would be a good choice?!" I see that my reputation is shot. OTOH, we probably won't need to worry about the baseball stuff, as it may be all over tonight.

Veronica, you should delegate the worksheet thing to us! Shoot, I'm sure we could come up with something that would keep your class occupied for hours.

I figured there would be a snag. Darn.

"A brewery would be a good choice?!" I see that my reputation is shot.

I was only making the point that a good brewery will have good food AND good beer. Your reputation is safe here. But, hey, you've been putting in all those extra hours at work. You deserve a hooky day, or even half a day!

What's on the agenda for Saturday? I'm interested in riding if there's a break in the rain. Mount Diablo might be risky in case the road's wet, though. Somewhere with rolling hills might be better. There's always Calaveras and the roads around Pleasanton & Sunol. What's anyone up for?

For the record, aka_kim and I did ride up Mt. Diablo yesterday. It didn't start raining until we were off the mountain and coming back through Danville. Good timing! It was beautiful up there. Very different with the dark clouds all around.
