trying to wrap my head around this
My sgs12 failed English, math and social studies. He placed in the lowest percentile on the end of year exam. So how the hell did he pass into 7th grade?

i created a d&d monster
Went to play d&d with sgs. It was ok. The play was much slower than I remembered. I was surprised at the several grey heads that were there.
Now the side effect to this foray into the past is all he wants to do is talk to me about d&d stuff. All the time, anywhere and his voice is booming. This weekend I had to ban him from all things d&d at dh's store, where he works.
No good deed ever goes unpunished.

d&d
SGS will be 21 next week. I offered to take him and some friends rafting. I figure waves, wipe outs, and girls in bikinis. Well friend can't go.
Now he wants me to go with him to play in a dungeons & dragon tourney. I've not played in 35 years.
Not sure what to do.

i should have been home 3 hrs ago.
I worked kinda late tonight, walked out to my car and my stomach fluttered. The lights where on. They were on for the last 6 hours. But it's ok, my friend is going to jump my car off all I need are a set of jumper cables. I open the trunk, look under the mats where the spare tire is and they're not there. And then I remembered ysd 'borrowed' them 3 years ago and never gave them back.
Just when I stop obsessing something reminds me that I wasn't wrong to completely kick her out of the house.

spiders
Sgs20 lives with us. He's an alright kid. Dh agreed to put him thru college if he works for him in the shop. Plus I get a ready partner to go whitewater rafting. It works, for the most part.
He's 20, male, not big on house keeping. Can't see the floor for the crap. He's also deathly afraid of spiders.
So is it bad of me to tell him that it is spring, spider hatching weather, especially where there are places for them to hide like a messy room?
You should have seen his face. Room is clean.

first time talking to in-laws stories
What were your very first interactions with your in laws?
Dh's family is far flung. His sisters live 1000s of miles from us and both parents are dead. Did not meet them before we got married and did not expect them to come to the wedding. About a year after we got married his youngest sister calls. I answer the phone and we introduce ourselves.

pas website, standupforgus.org
Saw this on CNN yesterday. Jason patric lost his son to his girlfriend and she won't let him have any contact with his kid. But he's created a foundation to help those whose ex's are pas'ing their kids.

I got the weirdest email
From the Minnesota Courts. I've never been to Minnesota. Apparently it's a hoax and it directs you to open an attachment. Did some research but no one is saying what it does. Be careful and the Minnesota courts rarely if ever email anything, they do snail mail.

SGS20 got more info than he bargained for...
Today I texted sgs asking when was he coming home today. I got a kind of snarky, 'Why? I'm not a little kid anymore.' to which I replied 'a. So I can plan how many for dinner and b. to be sure I'm fully dressed before you get home.'
He replied, 'omg. Thought you were checking on me. Sorry.'
This comes on the heels of him catching dh in his tighty whities singing and dancing 'I love rock n roll' in the kitchen.
