Only on the west coast do schools send out missives about upcoming field trips - in March - with the directive "Pants will be mandatory. No shorts please." Also, some parents will "forget" to read that part, and there will be at least one kid on that bus wearing shorts. They will be completely fine.

Hoping this is not some kind of portent of the season(s) to come: today I worked from home and, for the first time this year, it was nice enough to eat lunch outside.

It was great until a wasp landed on my soda can.

A WASP. IN FEBRUARY. WTAF.
