Evie Day 539
Good morning and happy Thursday to you all! Today is 5 September 2024.
Today is going to be an interesting day. Not for any particular reason other than it’s the beginning of the NFL football season, and the team I have aligned myself with and cheered for since I was 7 is starting their second consecutive season defending their Superbowl crown. The Chiefs open the season against a rival that really wants to beat them, the Baltimore Ravens. I fully expect the Ravens to win tonight… the Ravens game I care about the most is the one that might take place in January in the playoffs. The Chiefs lost their season opener last year against the Detroit Lions and then recovered… I expect the same tonight.
I got together with the guys for a couple of hours last night and we had a good gaming session. Not much slaying of evil bad guys last evening, but more of an assessment as to which of a series of opponents we want to tackle first. One of the party members, a relatively new player suggested, “Hey, maybe we can get them to fight each other?”. I like the way he thinks!
There was another school shooting yesterday in Georgia, 4 dead – 2 students, 2 teachers. I doubt anything will change. The nation could’ve made a collective “no more” decision after Sandy Hook, but we decided differently. We love our guns, and sacrifices will have to be made.
The shooter is a 14-year-old kid.
I’ll be back in my virtual classroom later today. I have a case study to go over later… then it will be time… for meetings. I have three meetings after my regular work day.
Until then…
I hope the world i treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
