Some People Never Learn...

My little Pookie is all grownz up. This Saturday at 9:00 a.m., he will walk across the podium, shake the principal's hand, and say good-bye to high school for good.

You may remember previous posts regarding him throwing parties, getting caught with booze, cigarettes, steriods, condoms...whatever. His latest escapade found him at a school event drunk - and of course he got caught. The school called my mother, she came and got him, and he preceeded to bitch and yell about how stupid this all was, and state that he was going out. My mother said no. He put his fist through the wall. Again.

Consequences? He was suspended from school for 5 days, missed out on all the cool "senior stuff" that goes on that week, and was told that if he was good he could participate in the graduation ceremonies and attend the All Night Party. As for the parents - he explained the situation. He had a baseball game the day in question, in which he pitched. He took a muscle relaxer when he got home. Didn't eat all day. Took a Smirnoff (one of my sister's leftovers) from my mom's fridge. Said it was stupid, he'll never do it again. My parents are still letting him go on his senior trip to Hawaii next week.

Yesterday I got a call.

Red: Hey Pookie.
Pookie: Hey. If Blaine doesn't buy us alcohol for Hawaii, can you get it for us?
Red: ...
