Responsibly Irresponsible

Christopher asked for permission to go to Chicago to a show and to do a college visit with Zeke. Zeke's mom set everything up. The boys took the train from Waterloo, IN to Chicago. Columbia College is 1.5 miles from the train station. No problem.

Oh wait... Yes, there is a problem. The show and college visit are the same day as Homecoming. I was not happy. I was not happy with myself for not getting clarification on the dates. I was not happy with Christopher for intentionally blowing off his potential "kingdom." It was his idea to sign up as a joke and once the joke came to be a reality, he bailed. He explained that he did not completely bail out. He sent in a proxy. One of his buddies is going to be a "stand in" for him. Christopher even lent this kid a hat he has with fake dreadlocks sewn in.

Todd and I were still planning to go the game in order to take pictures, but he is scheduled to work tonight and unfortunate events with a friend took precedence over blog pictures for fun. We'll catch photos in the yearbook.
