What the hell was he THINKING? This is what I was asking myself yesterday morning when Scott’s principal called.  Apparently my usually well-behaved son has been a minion of Satan on the bus.  Donovan rides the bus in the mornings, except for Wednesdays, and he hasn’t seen a thing, so I am guessing he usually […]
