#sonOne informed me that their cellphones are back in service, so I started the morning by sending #GD1 and #GD2 some garden photos. Then I thought it wasn't fair that I rarely communicate with their older brothers #GS1 and #GS2, so I sent them a couple of pictures also.
-
Heard back from #sonOne. His phone died, so he's been using the work phone and forgot to pay the bill. The phones will be turned back on this month. No other bills are unpaid and they have plenty of food.
-
It is about 21:00 in #KCMO, so I'm not expecting a return call from #sonOne. #sonTwo is off-work around now, so I may get to talk with him for a little while.
-
Tried to call #sonOne on #Wire for our regular, weekly #videochat, but no answer.
-
#sonOne has not said anything about financial stress, but his phone is 'temporarily out of service' and so are #GD1's and #GD2's phones.
-
@geniusmusing The routers at work are centrally managed by another agency, so no experience to recommend by. I know #sonOne is using a #Ubiquiti router with #Wi-Fi, but I don't know specifics.

The hydrocortisone cream seems to have helped. Skin is a lot less itchy than it was earlier.
I don't think the cream is the reason I am sleepy and have a mild headache. Skipped this week's #videochat with #sonOne, #GD1, #GD2. Probably #naptime.

Weird. When I look back to junior high school (technically, my school was an "intermediate school" with 7th and 8th grades; a real junior high adds 9th grade), I see some of the most "challenging" times of my life. So it was really odd to see the widespread change from junior high and intermediate schools to middle schools in the ten to twelve years between when #sonOne went th…

#sonOne tells me Hardees now has the Famous Star and Western Bacon Cheeseburger (staples of the Carl's Jr menu; they have the same corporate owner).

#coin_laundry day. Also shipped a package to #sonOne ( for #GD1 and #GD2 ) and one to #sonTwo ( for #GS3 and my granddoggy ). I may ship to #Daddy_A on Thursday.
-
#sonOne told his daughters ( #GD1, age 12; #GD2, age 8 ) about the two cops that used to stop me every morning on my way to school (at gunpoint, naturally) to harass me. Including a daily Interpol check, to make sure I wasn't an international terrorist. Something about a Black kid with an armful of books, I guess.
He's trying to give them more personal connections to the events of the day.

In a #videochat with #sonOne and #GD2. #GD1 is asleep.
-
Got a new picture of #GS3. Eating breakfast. Wearing his Batman logo shirt. Reminds me of his uncle ( #sonOne ) ... around age 12-14, his favorite shirt had a bat logo and the words "Bat Attitude" on it.

This must be the “no knock warrant” case that #sonOne was telling me about yesterday.

As #sonOne reported during today’s call, Kansas City’s protests have not been as destructive. But they did destroy a cop car. https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article243140811.html
-
#sonOne is using the protests and riots and the police abuse that precipitated it to teach #GD1 and #GD2 about racial issues in the US as well as police brutality and authoritarianism.
-
Talked to #sonOne, #GD1, #GD2 for about an hour. #sonTwo is at work. About to call #Daddy_A.
-
#sonOne is working 10-12 hours per day, mostly remote. #sonTwo is working 16 hours per day on-site. I need to ask them both whether there is any rioting near them. I already asked #Daddy_A, but he has not answered yet.

My #Star_Trek piece: I watched reruns of ST:TOS (the original series) for many years. I enjoyed it immensely. I will never be a Trekkie. I just like the show. I saw an occasional ST:TNG or ST:DS9 episode if I lingered while dropping off #sonOne after a visit, but by that time, I had no TV, so other than probably 5 the next generation and probably 2 deep space nine episodes, I n…

I remember two slightly older friends of #sonOne’s. Both had gotten jobs and bought mini pickup trucks after high school, but were both broke and single. One of them bought a blow-up doll and tied it to the bed of the other one’s truck. They passed it back and forth for a few months. Finally, one young man’s mom saw the doll and blew a gasket.
