Hello and good mornternoon you beautiful tweedle-darlings!
Parking, right? Funny how one (perhaps the one writing this note?) can believe themself to be a fully sane and operable human being one moment, and unravel into an unhinged person screaming indictments at their fellow humans from the sound proofish safety of their car the next! Well, to this morning’s traffic we say “THANK YOU TEACHER.” You gave us a pop quiz on patience and serenity, and we failed. We’ll work on that.
🔥 And to the other drivers on the road, we take back NOTHING. Our critiques were actually spot-on and you’ve all got a lot of room to grow too. 😈
It’s back to school time here in Los Angeles, which likely matters not to the readers of this note. But, if you want to get high on life the school-supplies aisles are BOPPIN’ right now. Smell the pencils! Marvel at the bounty of highlighters. Dream about the pencil case you wish you had when you were younger. (This is Van typing, in elementary school my friend had an epic tricked out pencil case with all sorts of buttons and compartments that I coveted. To that pencil case I say, Thank you Teacher. You taught me I yearn for whimsy and organization. My pencil case was a small plastic box. Because I am evolved, I forgive my parents for this injustice. WOW. 👼)
While the littluns are headed to school, why don’t you head yerself over to Dynasty?! Who needs book learnin’ when you can hang out with all the class clowns and/or anxiety ridden students who didn’t understand their neurodiversity, and/or the DrAmA KiDs?! We’ve got the best in the bunch, the most superlative folks we know! And the get up and shine their light and light us up and remind us of what’s good in this wild world. So come on over and be reminded of goodness. You’re invited!
Thank you Teacher,
VanJam
