"What's your social signature...?"

Back to School Courtesies...

Where do I begin? Let's start this time with parents who drive through the carpool/car rider line. Mom, dad, will you please ask little Miss Princess and Mr. Prince to pick up the pace, grab that book bag, lunch bag, instrument, gym bag, and whatever else all that stuff is that takes forever to unload, and move it 
along at a faster pace? Some of us do have to go to work…


On more than one occasion I have sat stuck behind a car where it seemed like 10 kids fell out of the doors and each one had to sloooooowly reach bag inside the vehicle to retrieve gear, and then walk to the rear to pull another dozen items out of the trunk. Meanwhile, mom distracts school personnel (who are desperately trying to move the cars along) with a "gotta know now question," and then takes 5 minutes to give good bye instructions to each kid who in turn walks in a slow, snail-paced daze across the parking lot. Meanwhile, I've booted my kid out of the car, read the newspaper, and taken a 10 minute nap before I'm waved the "ok to
proceed" signal from school staff.

I love the car rider line...

    I enjoy writing, hanging out at the beach, and spending time with family and friends.
