How to Annoy the Crap Out of WG in Under Five Minutes

8:14 a.m., SMS from Shadow: Hey WG, today they have a whole program for Yom Haatzmaut (Israel Independence Day) until 1 but I have a final so I can't stay past 12. Do you want to come stay with D. here?

8:15 a.m., SMS from Shadow: Or do you want me to bring him home?

8:17 a.m., SMS from WG: Will Teacher let him stay without you? It's only an hour.

8:19 a.m., SMS from Shadow: Rabbi Principal said that you or someone else has to be here if D's going to stay, because it's a very hectic day, and it's not up to Teacher.

(WG swears loudly.)

8:24 a.m., SMS from WG: That's ridiculous, and I'm trying to get Rabbi Principal on the phone right now.

WG calls the school and is told that Rabbi Principal is very busy. Does WG want to leave a message? No, she does not. She wants to talk to him RIGHT NOW.

RP: Hello, good morning!

WG: Good morning. Listen, I just got a message from Shadow that she needs to leave at noon for a final, and she says that you said that D. can't stay without an aide, that it's not up to Teacher.

RP: (Sighs.) Well, let me tell you what happened. Shadow came and told me that she had to leave, and what to do. I asked what Teacher thought. Teacher said she thought it wasn't good for him to stay.

WG: Blah blah conflicting messages, blah blah not okay, blah blah, realize D. isn't coming back next year, but still blah blah.

RP: Listen. You stay calm, and I will handle it, and D. will be fine. Just tell Teacher and Shadow that you have plans and can't get him early.

8:31 a.m. SMS from WG: Rabbi Principal is going to find a place for him to be. I hae stuff scheduled through 12:40 because that's when I planned to leave for carpool.

8:37 a.m. SMS from Shadow: Rabbi Principal is an ass and D. will stay with Teacher.

It's not just me, right? SOMEONE isn't telling the truth.
