DU is adult

We went to our daughter's Holiday band concert tonight. Yes she's in middle school.

We had 30 minutes to kill.
I latch onto the county's WiFi in the school auditorium and try to log on to DU.
BLOCKED - the county has determined that DU is "adult".
Let's try to remember that and act like it.

Good for your County!

I think we are, actually, but not all the time.

There's a lesson in that blocking...we need to learn, and remember.

I can still remember the post announcing her birth.

I'm getting old but I can't vouch for the adult part.
