That gets us back to about 8pm this evening. Not to mention congratulating him for being able to eat a burger roughly the size of his head.īefore that, well, we were looking at some of the other designs that Amy had. Prior to that, people were passing out high fives to Eli for cracking a really knotty OAuth issue which he had been hammering away on for much of the last two days. It’d be pretty convenient if I could tell you when that would happen…but I don’t know anything about that. Before that, Jack (who travels with his own projector?!), Meghan, and I were putting the finishing touches on the plans for the Outreach team tomorrow, including the live broadcast of the tool announcement. You wouldn’t believe how difficult some schools have decided to make this. And before that, Ray and I were hitting the email contact list spreadsheets to make sure we have everyone lined up for our press release tomorrow. About an hour ago, we were looking at some final glyph designs that Amy had cooked up for our onboarding experience. I’ve just finished looking through the list of issues we have outstanding in the repo, on Mia’s request to see if everything lined up with Meghan and my perception of prioritization. Which explains why it’s not just me who’s awake at this point.Īs I start blogging, Mia, Rebecca, and Scott “West” are wrangling some badly merged commits on the GitHub server and I’m seeing messages roll in via Growl. We’re so close that I think we’re all super excited, but we know there’s still quite a bit of work to get done. Let me just say that today’s been a long day. When he came home, his only complaint from the day was that he had been worried his phone would fall from the onsie pocket.

He has more self-possession than I do now, at 44. He wasn’t thinking about what anyone would think, or say. Thrilled he got to wear this crazy outfit from his favorite show to school – ALL. When I saw the email requesting pajamas at school, I knew what was coming.Īs he kissed me goodbye that morning, he was so happy. He puts it on almost every day when he gets home from school and I just shake me head.

I am already plotting what to send my nephew next Christmas in retaliation for this ridiculous gift from my sister. Head to toe, David Tennant era, complete with a hood and pockets. What did my son wear? A Doctor Who onsie. This week was Denver’s 10th annual Pajama Day, which raises money, food and awareness for the homeless. I am pretty sure we all owe Glee a huge debt of gratitude.

Less pressure to wear exactly the same clothes and do exactly the same things. Part of it, I know, is all that diversity we fight for – one benefit seems to be (thus far) kids like to be different. He has generally not really cared what anyone thought and has gone his own way. I try not to impose my past experiences too much, because not only is Dex an old soul – he is most definitely his own person. So, yeah, as Dex entered middle school – that time when friends traditionally get judgey – I have been a little, let’s say… twitchy. Like we had not been friends for the past however many years. One of my worst memories from high school was when two best friends just didn’t pick me up one night, and then pretended they never even knew me after that. These kids who used to walk down the street to pick him up on the way to school all of a sudden, they would just yell rude comments and keep on going. My friend talked about how, when he turned 14, all of his friends pretended that they didn’t know him. I grew up in an area and a time where everyone was supposed to be exactly the same. While I never had outright bullying, there was a lot of ugly teasing and mean girls. I was chatting with a friend recently about our teen years and the stories were the same.
