Well I'm kind of amused that last night I had to act like the only adult in the room at my granddaughter's 2nd grade Thanksgiving Day performance.

The school music teacher had a performance for the parents and families of the kids singing some pretty funny turkey themed songs. We got there kind of early to drop her off to get ready and took a seat in the auditorium. The place started to fill up and after a while I noticed smoke a few rows up or at least it looked like smoke from someone smoking. So I watched the guy, I guess he was a dad or grandfather but every so often he would stick this pen like thing to his mouth and take a big drag and then puff out a mix of smoke and steam or the like. I guess I'm sort of dumb but that's the first time I've ever seen "vaping" I guess.

It drew a few stares from other parents but no one did anything. After about 10 minutes of watching this guy who apparently has a real addiction problem or just really wanted to make an ass of himself by testing the system I got up to go find someone in charge. I ran into a teacher and explained that a man in the audience was smoking an e-cigarette, she looked shocked and said that wasn't allowed and she would get someone. I went back and took my seat and a few minutes later the assistant principle taped my shoulder and asked what was wrong. So I got up and walked back to get out of earshot and told her. She said vaping and e-cigarettes are totally not allowed in any of the schools and said she would watch the guy, so I took my seat. About 2 minutes later he takes a long drag and lets out a mouthful and she was on him in a split second. He looked kind of surprised like it was perfectly normal to pretend smoke in an elementary school.

I guess he agreed to stop as he didn't do it again but I really wondered what an asshole he must be. Smoking in public places especially schools has been taboo for many years and for crying out loud we are talking little kids here. I can remember back when I was in high school in the 70's and they even had a smokers courtyard for the kids to smoke in so they wouldn't do it in the bathrooms but that was 40 years ago!

Oh well, made me feel better to be the only adult in the room!

Ali, and her spare orgasms.

My ex. She has now divorced husband #2 and has gotten engaged to another guy with whom we both went to High School. Hopefully he keeps her occupied and out of my life. Unfortunately is seems she is stalking me on FB and liking EVERYTHING I post.

We are "friends" on FB. This is a very new development. They've only been dating about 3 months. We really don't interact much on FB, but since the engagement ... literally every post gets liked and many are commented upon.

Not really amusing me because it's pretty macabre, but we have a slow flowing drain and I poured some draino down through the inspection plate to try and move things along a bit, and then a toad popped up near the hole. I tried to get him out, but he hopped back down the drain, so now I keep thinking he's going to disolve in the draino and become this toad skeleton at the end of the drain against the wall of the gravel pit.

Gross i know. Please don't judge.
