Bandgeek needs to stretch

Who would have thought marching with a 5lb clarinet could be hazardous to your health? Bandgeek did not stretch on Tuesday night and now has a pulled/torn muscle. She is on strong anti-inflammatory medication that will probably make her sleepy and dizzy. Told her if that is the case, she will stay home from school tomorrow. She can't miss school, she cries, she has biology tomorrow. Translation=I can't miss class with my drop-dead gorgeous, makes my heart go pitter patter biology teacher. Plan was to cut the grass, Matt offered to do her portion(love it when this stuff happens. Mower made a screeching, squeaking sound. He turned if off and tried to restart it and NADA. It needs its owner, who happens to be camping.(do not love it when this stuff happens).
