School has changed. Stop trying to compare what is no longer "comparable." Real school happens during those quiet one-on-one moments when the child asks the horrible. They will ask, "What does BullShit mean?" Now you can either deliver the bullshit fresh and pungent, covered with glassy skinned green and yellow poop flies. Or you can stop the bullshit and throw back your head, laugh and tell them the truth.
"Most everything is bullshit sweetie, you can turn it into fertilizer to grow more flowers, or get it stuck in creases in your sneakers--choose the former."

Food Trucks
The Food Trucks have come to town. Eat at them. Get out of your house, sweat more. Remind yourself why you live here. Find the Oviedo Mall tucked away and open your mouth for some goodness. Yup, you are sweating behind your knees. Yup, your T-shirt is really a sweat rag. Wait in line. Order the thing you think you'll hate, it will hate you back so hard you'll love the new taste of hate. Tell them I sent you. Then tell me how it mucking was. www.thedailycity.com
