My 12 year old son had his very first band concert tonight...it was so precious
Now..on to my bitching! My son asked me today if I could pick up a little boy that was in band with him that didn't have a ride and, of course, I agreed. My son then called the friends mom to verify that this was the plan and she said, "I appreciate you doing this, I have to work and will not be able to take him. I will be late to the concert, but I will be there."
Sooooooooooo, we leave and it is dark and pouring rain. This friend of my son's lives at the end of a very dark (no white lines, no lights), very curvy road and I was not happy about driving it, but I had made a promise. After driving about 4 miles on this road (doesn't seem that far until you try it on a dark, wet, curvy road!), we come to the friends house and what do we find?
THE DAD WITH HIS SON IN THE CAR LEAVING THE DRIVEWAY FOR THE CONCERT!!
Would a phone call from this child's parents have been too much to ask!
Thank you, I will now hush and just mumble to myself lol
