RE: My Kid's First Day of School Actifit Report Card: August 28 2019
During my brief stints in prison public school, I lived perhaps a mile or two from the place, but at the wrong end of the bus route. Waking up unnecessarily early just to ride for an eternity in a metal box with bad music playing over the stereo and obnoxious kids gradually swarming in to choke the life out of me... [shudders in horror...]
My memories of the bus are pretty mellow. My youngest memories are of being super rambunctious bouncing around the seats screaming the GI Joe theme song with my best friend at the time. Luckily my bus rides were either 10 minutes or 15 minutes for elementary and high school.
My kid is at the beginning of the morning route and the begining-ish of the afternoon route. In the morning he would have to be on the bus by 7:00 or 7:10 to be to school by 8:00, a half mile away...
Yeah, I was stuck on the bus for 45 minutes to an hour.
