Resistance is futile. Deer Grove East—28 September 2013 You know I’ve been doing my darnedest to keep the summer spirit alive; but, I think I just might have to admit that fall is upon us. I only wore socks and shoes today because I took a Jungshin class this morning. I’m holding out for a few more flip-flop days. We’ll see how that works for me.

Palatine High School Bands concert—8 May 2013</b>
Tonight marks the first concert of the new school year. It’s also the first with a new director, and the first of Number Two Son’s senior year. I’m ready to be entertained.

Palatine High School Cross Country v. Prospect—3 September 2013</b>
The Varsity Boys team won its opening meet (all the PHS teams did), in what we expect will prove to be a wonderful final season for Number Two Son, Adam. Argeni (followed by Emil) is one of this year’s captains (along with Adam, Dean, Emil, Eddie, and Graham). This was our favorite shot from the afternoon.
