Just talked with Max who has been stuck for the last 18 hours in the Houston airport. Texas is currently being besieged by tornadoes and historic blizzards. Airplane travel is a huge clusterfuck.
As we hung up, he was boarding his plane back to San Francisco.
I’ll spend the next eight hours or so sick to my stomach, worrying something bad will happen to his plane in the air, or that his BART train back to Berkeley will be subject to a sarin attack. ‘Cause that’s what parenting is all about.
Honestly. I spend about half my time these days bargaining with God. Just let all the bad karma associated with this DNA strain fall on me, I beg. Let Robin and Max lead charmed lives.
