I just missed my sons school play. :(

I had the time down on my calendar an hour late. 45 minute play, and it takes 45 minutes to get there.

I suck. :(

1. That's too bad. Don't beat yourself up though, stuff happens.

2. I've got the best son in the world!

Just got a call from Mrs. Greyskye. Our company is laying off 30% of our staff within the next couple weeks, and evidently my son's been telling mom that I shouldn't go to the play so they wouldn't have an excuse to lay me off.

I think I'm going to cry now.
