The Bert Show. Sure, you go to a fancy charity event. They want you to dress up informal where you get it, right? You go to a wedding, you got to dress up for that. There is a dress coat. Makes a lot of sense. But kindergartners having a dress coat? Yes, it's ridiculous. My jaw dropped when I heard this. So I was with some other moms chatting, and then it came up. And I hadn't even read this. You know, I'm, maybe this is on me. There are some parents who literally read every single piece of information that they can get. Now we're up to five different apps. God knows how many PDFs. I'm like, nope, I'm going to read the calendar that they send home. I will subscribe

to the PTA calendar. Anything else I need to know, I will get in an email. Like, I am, I cannot be

studying for a PhD level course in kindergarten, okay? So talking to some other moms, then it came

0:49.8

up about a dress code and my head snapped so fast. I was like, what? There's a dress code? And I assumed

0:57.0

it was like a dress code they had in pre-K where they had to wear clothes, toe shoes just for the

1:18.9

aka Georgia in the summer, okay? It's been unnaturally cold last few days, and by unnaturally

1:24.3

cold, 75 degrees. That's been fantastic, though. It's been glorious. It's been been amazing. Actually, they dropped to like the 60s the other night and I was like, oh, God is real. Sidebar. I have an English bulldog that I can't really walk very much in the summer here in Georgia because it's so hot and they get, they'll just have like, she'll have a seizure, right? So the last couple of days, I have been able to walk her and she's just like,

I can't wait for the heat again because she's put like seven pounds on.

1:50.5

Oh, poor thing.

1:52.6

And it's so I feel her pain.

1:54.0

I'll step outside and I start sweating buckets.

1:56.6

And kids are no different.

1:57.6

And they're running around outside, climbing, playing, being kids.

2:01.9

And my thing is I understand sometimes rules are made and I might not understand them,

2:06.5

but there's good reasoning for them.

2:08.4

And I try and think through that.

2:09.5
