pick for me

1. Go to Cape Cod the week of August 27, causing Casper to miss the first day of school (school schedule that week is 9-12 Monday and Tuesday, 9-3:30 Friday; WTF?)

2. Go to Cape Code a later week in Sept. (i.e. Sept. 8), causing Casper to miss the 2nd real week of school.

3. Go to Boston earlier in the summer, go on a day trip to the beach, and look longingly southward towards the Cape Cod house, which is rented out to someone.

4. Stay here all summer, maybe with my mother visiting. She has even offered to try to rent a house on the Outer Banks for a week and we could all go out there, but this strikes me as overkill. Plus it's hot and icky down here.

I dunno. I really want to go to the Cape, but feel like I'd be a Bad Parent if Casper misses school. Stupid renter!

You'd turn down a lodging-paid week on the Outer Banks? You're of sterner stuff than I, who's a sucker for a week at the beach.

Well, part of it is my mother's tendency to talk big (=financially generous) and not come through. So in my mind there's a grain of salt attached to no. 4.

Aha.
