Ditched

Marcy and I planned on going to the Stand For Children rally today at the State House but she ditched me thirty minutes before we were suppose to be on the bus. She gave me an excuse about having a migraine and her son being home sick but I saw right through that lame excuse. Excuse me Marcy, ever heard of something called a cell phone? You could have been back home within a couple of hours if your son had needed something.

It’s interesting that Marcy made me sign up to go to this rally then she cancels. Hmmm, irony or conspiracy?

Anyway, I brought an apple and two granola bars and I lobbied for educating our children. Yes, I am now a lobbyist and you can send me hate mail and blame me for the collapse of the banking industry and I will laugh at your pain because that is the kind of person I am.

Will you come back and lobby for me... I need more money since my class sizes may rise. I currently average about 35 kids/class :)

Is there something like "Stand For Children" in CA? I'm new at this school thing.

P.S. their website only has 4 states as affiliates, and CA isn't one of them, so I was just wondering if there is something else that compares.

I'm not really sure about what there is in California but if you agree with Stand for Children's philosophy and mission you could start a chapter there. Some of the people who spoke at the rally were great. One guy said that when Massachusetts allowed a new tax deduction he started donating it to his children's school. I am all for lobbing to support education!
