What are you doing today?

My fourth and fifth graders have their songwriting concert next week. Yesterday one of my fifth grade groups worked super hard and finished a couple minutes early, but too late to start something new. So we were just sitting there having a class talk about random things. Suddenly, and for no apparent reason, the whole class started stomping a steady beat together. I thought it sounded like Storm Troopers, so I started humming the Imperial March. In a moment the whole class was singing, "Da, Da, Da, da DAda, da DAda."

My job is very weird sometimes.

Today brings a trip to Lowe’s and a van full of dirt, a trip to the police department to file a restraining order, donuts and chick fil a (on the one day I am allowed to have gluten, dairy, and eggs, for the sole purpose of making my stomach angry before a medical procedure tomorrow). Yay!

I can understand the restraining order, but why would you need to file donuts and chick fil a with the police department? Man, you need a permit for EVERYTHING these days!

I think she was bringing the donuts to the police as a bribe to help get the restraining order. Police thrive on donuts - donut shops are the 2nd home for the police.

My brother owns several donut shops. He likes having cops around.

Fishmanic is right, it was a bribe

Fishmanic is right, it was a bribe

You: *walks into police department*
"Here, y'all want some donuts?"
Cop: *goes to grab one*
You: "Not so fast there, let's talk business first"

You get donuts, but what do I get out of this transaction?

For real though, our police department is amazing and we have brought them donuts in the past

Where I live is really low crime. It’s really funny because when there’s a single call all the units will rush over because they’re bored

JB has the police eating out of the palm of her hand!

I knew the crime is somewhat low... I was saying that due to other things...

Yep. Or someone’s microwave catches on fire but it’s a small fire and is out before the fire truck gets there, and 3 fire trucks, 2 ambulances, and 4 cop cars show up

reporting gunshots doesn't bring police in fort worth anymore. I am digging in a new flower bed
