Random

On my way to the massage I was stopped at a red light where a group was holding a fund raiser. This is normal at this intersection during the warm seasons. I was getting some of my loose change together so I didn't notice what the red lettering on his lime yellow vest actually said. It read, "HELP RETARDED CHILDREN". I gave the man my change and the light turned green before I could make an ass of him or myself.

Yesterday my group got together to work on the presentation portion of our project. Our president, Erin, had held up her part and gotten the project printed and bound and submitted right on time. Ron and I had stayed at school from Monday afternoon into 1.30am Tuesday morning editing and refining all the work everybody had submitted at that point. Erin then added the last finishing touches and took it to the printers. So, yesterday, this girl in our group has the balls to ask me why a portion of her work was not included in the submitted draft. I apologized immediately and asked her to tell me what had gotten deleted. I must have read these drafts 10 times during the editing process and the topic whose omission she seemed so pissed about was not part of the content I had edited. So I asked her when she submitted it and she told me with great indignation, "I submitted it Tuesday". I told her was that the project had to be submitted Tuesday at 10am and that Ron and I finished the edits at 1.30am Tuesday morning. I later shared this discussion with Erin who said, "What? Does she mean that thing sent me at 9 am Tuesday morning?!?!" If that shit was so important you should have submitted it earlier, or better yet, you should have been working on that shit with us Monday night.
So, to that girl in my group I say, I hope my meager donation today makes its way to you.
