It was 82 today.
It is still officially winter.
I hate Texas.
Also, the AC in my car doesn't work because it is old.
Come to Ohio. It is almost Texas cheap, but we have the best damn dairy farms in the midwest. The skim milk tastes like the south's whole milk!
EDIT - I mean that the midwest has it. not that ohio is best in the midwest.

Since Pi Day is Teensy Valeros's 7th birthday, he's asked for piecaken.
Except I'm actually making piefaken, which means the pie will be sandwiched in between two cake layers, but not baked inside of it.
If this sounds disgusting, well, he's a seven year old boy. He wants a marshmallow peppermint pie with an oreo crust inside a chocolate cake.
Which I have to keep in a cooler in ice all day in the car, as we're driving down to the Hill Country to see some caverns, camp on the lake, and get some of the best barbecue in the state. (Cooper's Pit, in Mason, Texas, where half of WW's family comes from.)
The brisket at Cooper's should make up for the dessert.

Well, I've had a fun couple of weeks. I failed my driver's test last week, and I passed the motorcycle safety course today. Since I already have my M1 learner's permit, that means I get my M1 license as soon as I get the certificate of completion from the school and give it to the DMV. So I kinda sorta got my driver's license today! I mean, what California is going to issue me says driver's license on it, though it is only a class M1, not a class C, and in no way authorizes me to operate a car, only a motorcycle or scooter.
I can't retake the driver's test until mid-June at the earliest because of how horrifically booked out they are, but suddenly it doesn't matter so much. I earned a motorcycle license, I have access to motorized transportation.
Now I need to find the right bike. I've been riding a crappy ADV (street legal dirt bike basically), and I know I NEED a motorcycle now that I've ridden a motorcycle, but I think I want a cheap, light cruiser to start. Like a Honda Rebel, except I'm kinda big, so maybe something a bit taller. But that kind of bike.
Or I could buy some sort of crotch rocket I can in no way handle, and that doesn't even fit what I want to use a motorcycle for, and then proceed to ride around like a squid. That's also a valid option.
Always wear a helmet.

Give your teacher an extra hug today.
This is the kind of s*** they have to put up with on a weekly basis:
(1) Since choir is non-essential, all choir events, concerts, etc. have been canceled for the rest of the school year. Yes, sports teams are still playing.
(2) The school district has issued an advisory against gatherings of 50 or more students. The choir director's 7th period class (the last class of the day) has 70 people in it.
(3) Given (1) and (2), yesterday in class the choir director had nothing for the students to do, plus they were in violation of district policy by having more than 50 kids in the same (small) room, so she announced, "If you are planning on going straight home, you may leave if you want to."
(4) Two kids notified her that their mother didn't want them leaving school early, so she let them stay in the classroom until the period was over.
(5) Didn't matter. As soon as they got home their mother heard about the rest of the students leaving early and filed a formal complaint with the principal against the choir director for letting students out early. In spite of the fact that HER kids stayed for the entire period.
Must... not... beat... other... parents...

I do find overly realistic depictions of Pokemon and even better Pokemon fusions might also do the trick.

I ended up getting Origins and will get Odyssey another time (soon).
Just waiting for it to update...

According to the CDC if you want to get revenge on the parents they're the ones you should be hugging, not the teacher.

No! Hells No.
If I destroy you all I can't profit off your personal information.
I prefer "fleece the world" or something of that nature.
