Student Council meeting (Lunch)

Josh put down his crossword puzzle when the Student Council arrived.

"Okay, we didn't get much accomplished last week. My political campaigning students are already tired of me saying this but if it's not on paper, it doesn't exist. So. Valentine's Day dance. It's been pointed out that that holiday," he made a face, "falls on a Tuesday this year. Does anyone have some kind of deeply felt belief that a dance on February 17th would be the worst thing ever? If you do, speak up now."

He looked down at his paper. "We also need to come up with finalized Spring Break trip dates. Classes are out March 6-10 with weekends on either side. How long would you like to be gone? And, um, where do you want to be going?"

He smiled at Isabel. "I like the idea of game night even if last weekend was bad because of, and I can't believe I'm saying this, snowmonsters. I'd say pick a night, toss up some posters and have fun."

He cleared his throat. "Our list of potential dances now includes prom, Arbor Day and something about square dancing that I'm really hoping you don't expect me to demonstrate because that's never going to happen."

Josh sat back down. "Old business, new business..." he waved his hand. "Whatever. Knock yourselves out."

"It definitely does have potential. If you don't wind up in sugar shock because of any sappiness." She sighed, "That sad thing is? Last year, I had enough flowers that my dad thought we'd opened a branch of the florist at our house and my choice of dates for the evening. Now? My priorities are a little different I gues."

"Last year, I..." Peter trailed off. "Well, at least I have platonic friends this year. That's one step forward!"

"That's a start," Isabel agreed and then laughed. "Spending the evening mocking with friends. This might be my best Valentine's yet."

"It would be my best by far," Peter said. "I'll see you there, right?"

"Of course. Even if the sole reason for the dance is celebrating the joys of couplehood, it's still a party."

"Good point. I'm officially there," Peter said.
