Throwback to June 19, 2015

1. Text my child.

2. Take photos of my child from afar.

3. Brag to others that I was taking photos of my child from afar.

4. Ask lame questions about meal plans and dorm room furnishings and parking decals and other such information which was readily available in the printed brochures provided and on the website and in all the literature that has been mailed to our homes.

5. Inquire if parent chaperones were needed on the marching band trip to Ireland. (Nope.)

6. Tell the parents at the lunch table that I would be cleaning my child’s dorm room over parent weekend.

7. Laugh when the director of dining services who boasted of his Polish surname announced that kielbasy and pierogi would sometimes be on the menu, because getting these recipes right is simply not a matter to be taken lightly.

8. Turn down the chance to drink a few glasses of wine at the afternoon reception.
