What went down.

Today, all hell broke loose. It started off with Mandarin traffic being completely incompetent, because some woman at MHS decided TODAY a new plan for traffic for all of Greenland & Loretto, which entailed me being dropped off at the stadium and walking a distance not dissimilar to going from the fountain to portable 12.

Thank you for sympathizing. And thank you for saying you felt proud of me. That means a lot to me.

That sounded just terrifying-- I don't blame you for being all shook up. I'm very sorry, and I hope the flashbacks eat themselves.
