Theatrics at the Daniels...

This morning, Jessica had theatre practice at school.  I feel compelled to remind you that Jessica is in 8th grade - Jr. High.  She's in an incredibly competitive "fashion" environment, where literally fortunes are won and lost on the hue of one's eye shadow.

Back to this morning's account... Jessica needed a ride, and I, being the coolest Dad ever, elected to drive her (never mind that my wife was doing a jigsaw puzzle and asked me to drop off).  Knowing how "competitive" Junior Highers are on the fashion/coolness front, I got all dolled up to drop her off and get my wife and I some coffee while out.

I drove us both to the school, where theatrical kids and their parents were hanging out waiting for rehearsal to start.  For some reason, I can't quite put my finger on it... but for some reason, Jessica didn't want me to get out of the car...

... I guess it'll just be one of those great unsolved mysteries like the Lockness Monster or the Kennedy assassination....
