Since I'm enamored of lists today...

1) This is me informing all of you, officially, that what Paige claims to be doing checks out. There are hotels and bus tickets reserved in her name, and both Harvard and MIT confirm that the try-out offers were made. But given that this decision came so suddenly on the heels of her removal from training, I think we're justified in being concerned. We'll be endeavoring to keep an eye on her once she's no longer in transit; she may be of age, but as I told Jay, I don't consider our responsibility to her ended, especially under the circumstances.

2) That being said and the necessary public explanations and asking for fucking forgiveness being done, the rest of you can damned well put your money where Hank's mouth is and handle things for the night. I am taking myself and my invisible-thus-useless conflict management skills and heading out for the evening. As I am on back-up duty at the moment, I will be taking my com with me, but unless there's actually a team emergency? Leave me the hell alone.

If the children decide that mayhem in the halls is an appropriate Saturday night activity, you can all do what pretty much none of you did yesterday and deal with it.
