Near my kids school there's a central market which is popular for play dates because it has a giant playground in the back attached to a kitchen where you can get food and drinks. I did a playdate a week or two ago with one of my sons friends after school. There was a PTA meeting that evening around 5:00 and while getting ice cream around 3:30ish we randomly ran into one of the faculty members who was sitting at the wine bar already clearly having indulged a few. I could tell she was a little off put or worried she'd been caught but all I could think was: God fucking bless. I wouldn't want to deal with most of these fucking parents sober either and I can only imagine what she's been dealing with all day.
