I was hot…
I shouldn’t have been, but I was…
He’s got a lot on his plate right now. SAT’s, AP Calculus test, essays for college applications, graduation in 1 1/2 weeks…
But still…
The last time that I spoke with the Drexel coach, we agreed to figure out the best time for my son to make “official” visit to the campus. I called him today to make my suggestion.
It turns out that they cannot legally fly him out for an “official” campus visit because they are technically not recruiting him. They signed three kids last November and used up all of their recruiting money for this next school year.
That was news to me. But, I have a voucher for a free flight with United Airlines that expires on May 25th. I just don’t know where it is.
So, I went home with that task before me…find the voucher and start looking at airline flights.
I had been home for about 15 minutes when my son came in and said, “Dad, they are having this Senior Awards ceremony.”
“When?”
“Tonight.”
“TONIGHT?
“Yes. I’m supposed to be there at 7:10.”
Keep in mind that he is giving me this information at 6:30…
Then my daughter piped in, “Yeah. There a bunch of parents dressed up really nice at a banquet in the commons area right now.”
“WHAT!? When did you know about this?”
“Today. I didn’t know that I was getting any awards…but I am getting three of them.”
You get the idea.
We got dressed and arrived at 7:10.
I still had smoke coming off of my ears when the parents of another wrestler came up and started chatting. Their son informed them at 5:45!
So, I am not alone. I guess it must be another “brain development” moment.
