February 20: The mall in Japantown had a store that featured a complete makeup set designed to look like cows. The little tubs of lotions balanced on four legs, only letting you reach the ointment after you twisted off the beast’s head and torso. The white contouring sticks were splattered with a black puddle pattern.
February 21: There was a strip of black duct tape was plastered across the pull handle of the fire alarm, but it still wasn’t enough to prevent it from getting pulled again this week. I think that’s the 5th false alarm since I started working here.
February 22: The lights went out in the cafeteria while Mr. Carlson’s class was still winding their way through the audience to get to the stage for their performance. They all stepped dead in their tracks until a few parents and I turned on the flashlights on our phones and shined them at the ground, creating a little stepping stone path of lights.
February 23: There is a health safety sign in the College Connect office that pictures a man doing the dab and text underneath reminding us that this position is the Defense Against Bacteria.
February 24: We had a program-wide kickball game for Manny's last day. His girls kept running from team to team, trying to convince everyone that they had caught him crying.
February 25: It took some effort to convince Nick not to set an alarm when we took a nap. You have to walk on the wild side sometimes.
February 26: Nick’s parents asked us to reschedule our wedding because they were planning a month-long trip to Thailand around that time. They haven’t bought tickets yet or even planned out where they are going, but they wanted us to switch weekends because it was more convenient for them.
much love,
hedgie
