Checkin' In. Checkin' Out.

I have been a busy little bee, and I’m about to get a whole lot busier. I start a class tonight that goes from 4-8 every Friday and 8-4 every Saturday. Sounds awful, huh? Then I’m supposed to find time to do my taxes. I hate doing my taxes. I’d rather chew glass.

In the news:

Students continue to walk out of class in protest to the immigration bill, but things seem to have slowed down a bit. A couple hundred kids walked out yesterday. No word yet on how many today. None are walking out of BHS. Paul told me the school was surrounded by cops yesterday and a huge “paddy wagon” looking bus was cruising around. He also told me tensions were definitely high on campus. I’m just hoping no body loses it and causes mayhem.

Buck’s funeral is set for this weekend and it’s scheduled to be broadcast live on TV and radio. That’s pretty cool. There will also be a viewing held at the Crystal Palace tomorrow 10:00 to 6:00 for those of you would like to take a peek. (Personally, I hate that, and not that you care, but there is no way in hell I want to have my body up on display for people to gawk at my boney carcass. That’s creepy.) Bucks obit is in the paper today, with a very nice picture of him as a fresh faced young man.

If you’re not in the mood for a funeral, there’s no shortage of action going on this weekend. The Scottish Festival is this weekend at Stramler Park. Paul and I went last year and had a great time. Take plenty of money cuz there’s tons of cool things to buy and good fun to eat. Also this weekend is the annual All Breed Dog Show at the Kern County Fair Grounds. Sponsored by The Kern County Kennel Club, the show runs Saturday and Sunday with gates opening at 7:30. I’ve never been to a dog show so I’m thinking about checking it out. Only problem is I’ll probably want to take ‘em all home and my cat wouldn’t like that.

Have a great weekend everyone!
