We are in the most un-fun funhouse of all time.

I am in a school and all of this is just a little too close to home. This man, and everything about him, makes my skin literally crawl. I am so put out by the insanity that I am better off not commenting with the horrid thoughts that are in my brain. I seriously can't even...

We all have a friend that is in a school. God bless these kids and I think they can change things. There's something special in them, there really is. As Obama said today, "We have been waiting for you".

I agree Dustin.. There seem to be a lot of double standards. At 16 you can own a gun, join the army, get married, drive a car (in the US 17 here).. why the HELL can't you drink?? To my way of thinking the former is a LOT more dangerous than drinking alcohol! However, the combination of guns and Booze scares me even more! It's true the world is so crazy.. But arming teachers! God almighty...

I've seen Delaney Tarr with the Never Again movement wearing a Love Button in some of her interviews. It would be nice to see lovebutton.org join up with them....

So proud of these students that are so passionate about staying safe in their schools. The response to these nationwide walkouts was awesome!

They had to step up since the adults are making such a mess of things. I hope they prevail.

My school participated in the walkout today, and it was widely accepted and went smoothly. There was one parent that called to say that he didn't want his daughter to participate for whatever stupid ass reason. But other than that, it went very well. The only thing is that our students didn't walk outside of the building. There were designated, supervised places in the building for them to go because our Admin. felt a bit weirded out by announcing to the world that a bunch of students would be outside at this particular time, so they had a 'walk in' of sorts, but it was the same, just a different place to go. It's a shame that we have to think about such safety concerns.
I, too, am amazed at these students in Parkland. What an unbelievable group of passionate young people, and I want to hug all of them. Our future is definitely brighter thinking that we have students of this caliber coming out of our schools at this time. More power to them, and I hope they succeed...for all of us.

Wearing one of the "special" buttons today, one that I got from a concert. (Usually I keep those put away with my keepsakes. )

Did anyone find Wally/Waldo today on Google Maps? I did.. it was fun. Part of Googles April Fools day thing. Seriously If you have no idea what I am on about go to Googlemaps if you have an hour or so, spend it looking for Wally/Waldo.
