    I played hookie a few weeks ago and went down to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo on a random Tuesday. It was glorious.

    Later my middle schooler was looking through Google Photos and went “wait, you and Mom went to the zoo without us?!” Mwahahaha. Get rekt kid.

      I’m often unsupervised in my work. Sometimes we can work extra hard for a few days and skip a day once we’re sure that we’re getting done on schedule. We say we were there of course. Got to go to MoMA and New York’s Museum of Natural History this way.

      Edit- letting your kid look through your Google photos account, pretty brave

      Just went on a trip with only me and my mother, while my wife and the teenager stayed behind and my god, it was so nice going through an aquarium and being able to stop and look at something for longer than 15 seconds.
