I was wondering why my face hurts and why I have a splitting headache. Then I realized, I’ve been clenching my teeth all day. Probably because of the morning I’ve had, and because Pepco’s outage map indicates that my journey home will longer due to signal outages, and when I get home it will be hot, dark, and without much to do.
Ooops. So much for teaching kids to “always tell the truth.” Apparently, toddlers who tell lies make for more successful adults. I’m not sure if that says something important about child development, or something sad about the kind of society we live in.
