Ah, April 21st, a lovely springtime day. NOPE NOT FOR YOU MOTHERFUCKER! HERE'S AN INCH OF SNOW! BOOM!
Oh how I wish I was joking, but there is in fact snow outside. It started around 1pm yesterday and went all night long. Good times. It is 28 degrees outside, yet ironically it will be 62 on Friday. Go figure.
Let's talk about the important news. George Floyd's murderer was held accountable on all three counts against him. For the first time a white cop is being charged and suffering the consequences for their actions. Good. Long overdue. It's not justice. It's not a turning point. But it's a positive sign that the people have had enough. I am sure he will get sent to a protective jail and not have to pay for his actions other than incarceration, but it's a start. One small step in the right direction.
Me, I taught. Two students. Good smart people. We finished around 4:15 because they had 100 questions. Plus I am letting them unmute and one of them is a talker. Could rival me. That's saying something. But they are alright. Engaged and eager to learn. Won't complain about that.
Afterwards, I went to the store. Initially I was just going to go to the smaller store and get stuff for dinner tonight, but then I looked at the list and said fuck it. It was still early enough that I beat the after work crowd. They were coming in as I was leaving. I did get lunches and food for B, steaks for tonight, and stuff like kitty litter. Worth the trip.
Second day of teaching, followed by cooking steaks for our friend's birthday. We should have a nice time tonight.
