Tuesday, April 29th – I am supposed to be plugging my info into some job sites today. I just don’t feel up to it. I am doing it, but easily distracted. IMing with my old school buddy Richard (Zeus) while I work, so that’s helping a bit. Computer is running a bit slow so that is a bit frustrating. Have to get ready for tonight’s Pack meeting. Normally these are on Monday’s but last night the school held spirit night at Skate City (we did not attend) so we moved the meeting to tonight. Not prepared at all for the meeting… guess I’ll wing it and see how it goes. Is summer here yet?
Well it’s now later in the day, and the Pack meeting is over. All in all it went pretty well. Attendance was pretty low, but I blame that on having to move nights. There was a small scheduling conflict we had to work out on the fly. Seems the school scheduler had booked three groups in the gym at the same time (us, Girl Scouts, and Tai Kwon Do). Girls Scouts were very cooperative and moved into the art room, we arranged to move the Tai Kwon Do class into the cafeteria but the instructor was having nothing to do with that. Seems he was mad that he was bumped from the gym last week for the science fair (sorry you were move for an official school function) and wasn’t moving again. Long story short, after some slightly heated discussion, six kids did Tai Kwon Do in the large gym and we crammed about 100 people into the smaller cafeteria. One of the teachers from the school opened the meeting with a short magic show that was a great hit. It was got hot and it was crowded, but the kids did well for about 40 minutes, then started to lose interest. We moved the meeting a bit quicker and finished in record time. I am sure "the wife" who is also our school representative for scouts (known as the Charted Organization Representative or C.O.R.) will be having some discussions with the school scheduler tomorrow.
