September 9: We walked to Dolores Park and Katie pointed out a grown man wearing a rainbow unicorn onesie. Katie couldn’t stop staring at him because she wasn’t used to people dressing this way. All I could think of was how hot it must be wearing that on a sunny day like this.
September 10: I planned my lessons for the week, including community building games like ‘Never Have I Ever’ and ‘Vroom, Vroom, Screech’. Then I realized that I was teaching children the games I learned from drinking heavily in college while playing King’s Cup.
September 11: After each round, the kid who was eliminated from animal musical chairs would name their favorite animal. The kids still in the game would walk around the circle of chairs in the manner of the named animal. They had a difficult time trying to figure out how to walk like a chameleon and just squinted suspiciously at each other.
September 12: Jen said she was coming in late today because she needed to drop her kids off at the airport. She sent out a group text, saying she was at Boba Guys and asking if anyone wanted anything. Melissa looked up from her desk. “Tell her I want her to come in to work.”
September 13: Christy once took a candle-making class. She was able to choose the scent she wanted to work with. Among the normal choices of scents like lavender and vanilla was ‘freshly washed man’.
September 14: Everyone’s little brothers became very different adults than I expected them to be. Lydia’s brother David now burns holes into people’s chests and apply frog flesh to the holes, which causes them to vomit while he plays the flute. Emily’s brother Jake had a lot of beers and we ended having a conversation about snorting cocaine off a clown’s dick.
September 15: Though Lydia’s wedding day was full of touching moments and tender scenes, the memory that will always stick out in my mind was her excited naked dance while screaming “I’m getting married”at the top of the stairs before she took her morning shower.
September 16: Lydia’s wedding photographer cancelled on them three hours before the wedding by email. Nick ended taking pictures of everything and took his duty so seriously that everyone thought he was the actual hired photographer and were confused as to why he was helping clean up the venue the next morning.
much love,
