excellent question. is he school-age, and if so, what time does the school day end?
Turning 11. No idea on school, they have weird schedules. His parents are oblivious to things like this.
yeah, 4:30 seems like an odd time to start a kid's party, even on a Friday.

show up with beer.

Been blowing/raking leaves for 2.5 hours. Had to stop because there’s no more room on the curb. Only got about half the front yard done.

see, i checked the weather for today and tomorrow and noticed that it is supposed to be windy. there's no way i'm doing yardwork and watching all the leaves from my asshole neighbors that didn't rake or that raked all their leaves into the street blow into my yard after cleaning it.

Waiting for an outdoor wedding to start. It’s already rained twice while we’ve been sitting here and the wind is blowing everything everywhere.

For music while everyone arrives they’ve chosen a ton of classic rock tunes done with just classic style piano. We’ve heard Free Bird, Stairway, Baba O’Riley and Nothing Else Matters so far. Quite enjoyable.

Can you tell where you are right now? Any recognizable landmarks on the way?

Holy crow, yes! The ceremony was actually on a cliff face overlooking the river and there was a wooden frame set up behind the preacher. During the ceremony the wind blew it over and it went tumbling down the cliff face.
