It's much easier than it is.

We have, well, cause you don't have to like scrub.
'em like, like you didn't haveto get all the stuff off of them
because it, but then there's asanitizing fluid and you dip it
in the sanitizing fluid.

stuff.

you did not clean all the
Norah (02:38):
No, we clean all the food off of them.
I would eat off the dishes.

like, we, cause we use thedishwasher, so we scrub it
clean.
We don't use soap at home, butwe soap it there.

Dad (05:43):
Do they have, do they still do, did they start?
So It was

Like I probably wouldn't havegone to prom, but I wanted a
fancy dress.
Dad (05:57):
Would you have gone even without the.
Like, would you have gone justif it were just like you and
your friends,
Norah (06:04):
Probably not.
Dad (06:05):
because most of your friends didn't have
Norah (06:07):
No.
They went with each other.
Um,
Dad (06:11):
Which is, which is, which is a new thing.
Like when I was or newish, Ithink like when I was in high
school, we only had senior promyour high school, cause you're
only in 10th grade, but ninethrough 12, the whole upper
school goes to PR or gets to goto prom.
Norah (06:24):
Yes,
Dad (06:24):
Yeah.
So my high school only seniors.
went to prom.
Um, And yeah, only seniors.
Well, my, my high
Norah (06:31):
normally juniors and seniors.
Dad (06:33):
but my high school had 4,000 kids.
Norah (06:35):
Oh, well, Lakeridge has a hundred kids in
Dad (06:38):
Yeah.
My high school, had a lot ofkids.
Um, but yeah, but it was, we,they had a junior prom that I
didn't go to.
They had a senior prom that Idid go to, but like I needed a
date because people just didn'tgo in groups.
Like you went with it.
If you didn't have a date, youdidn't go to prom.
Norah (06:52):
Yeah, I wouldn't, I don't know,
Dad (06:54):
I couldn't even tell you now the name of my, like I don't
remember the name of my promdate.
I couldn't, I know she had red,hair, but I
Norah (07:02):
like red, like ginger hair or like dyed red hair.
Dad (07:05):
oh, no, no.
Like red, like ginger red hair.
Norah (07:07):
I love ginger hair.
It's a.
Dad (07:09):
could not for the life of me tell you what her name was.
Um, she was a friend of afriend.
We went, we had a.
I would say a mediocre timeproblem.
Cause it was like a, it was likea first date for both of us.
Um,
Norah (07:23):
mean, I think I would prefer as Ryan and I both, like,
we both just prefer to like,stay at home, but it's like,
it's like fun to go for like alittle bit.
Dad (07:34):
do they still do, like prom king and prom queen?
Is that still a thing?
Norah (07:38):
that happens at like every school except for
Lakeridge.
I think, I don't know.
It doesn't happen at Lakeridge.
Dad (07:43):
one D do you know why?
Norah (07:45):
No, we're different.
I don't know.
Dad (07:47):
Well, you've definitely different.
Yeah.
Norah (07:49):
Um, we do gift cards instead.
He put your name in a raffle andyou get gift cards.
Oh no, maybe that was justsomething this year.
I didn't get a gift card, so,
Dad (07:58):
Oh,
Norah (08:00):
but.
I'm trying to think if other, Imean, like I've seen other
schools do prom king and promqueen, just because like on
social media,
Dad (08:13):
and you don't do it.
You don't have like homecominghomecoming, king and queen.
Norah (08:17):
court.
I know a lot of schools dohomecoming court though.
Dad (08:20):
Yeah,
Norah (08:21):
We
Dad (08:22):
maybe Lakeridge doesn't want to, maybe there don't.
want to promote popularity.
I think the whole thing stupidanyway, like a giant popularity
contest to make the most popularkid in school feel good about
being the most popular kid inschool to me is really
Norah (08:35):
I don't really care.

Dad (08:37):

Oh, the listeners don't know whoKashi is, but Kashi had a
beautiful dress.
It was very pretty
Dad (09:04):

I would have fallen asleep.
I fell asleep on the way toRyan's house and then we were

Dad (12:15):
But there were, I'm assuming there were like your
school doesn't do school.

Dad (12:34):
Okay.
Norah (12:36):
They're juniors and seniors, and really hang

Um, and then schoolwork all day.
Uh,

They went to like two in themorning and I had Saraj was our
exchange student who lived withus when you were in

Um, but yeah, but after themusical close, they had their
cast party that went way laterthan she thought it was going

And, uh, I got really madbecause she blew her curfew by
like two and a half, threehours.
Norah (13:23):
she didn't have a ride.
Right.
Dad (13:24):
didn't have a ride or cell phone died and I had to call,
um, some strangers home, uh, whoI did not know to say I was
looking for my exchange student,who I knew was there.
can you please find her and puther on the phone?
This wasn't like two o'clock inthe morning.

mad I was.
And I just didn't want to haveto call her parents and tell her
(13:45):
parents that we had lost.
there.
We lost their Docker
Norah (13:48):
This is, that's why we, um, have, those at school now.
Dad (13:54):
The cast parties.
'cause I got mad because I gotmad that one time
Norah (13:59):
No it's because Ms.
Rodriguez, well, I thought itwas like, those was of COVID,
but we kept doing them at schoolafterwards because Ms.
Rodriguez who's the theaterdirector at Lakeridge.
she didn't want to stay up thatlate or didn't want people
staying at that lake.
So if anything happened, she'dbe responsible for it.
like someone like fell asleep atthe wheel or if after she left
(14:19):
at people, Took things out thataren't illegal or that aren't
legal.
Um, so they're at school now andthey go to like 11 or 12 and

It's much easier than it is.
Dad (01:58):
What makes, what makes it easier at work?
Norah (02:00):
We have, well, cause you don't have to like scrub.
'em like, like you didn't haveto get all the stuff off of them
because it, but then there's asanitizing fluid and you dip it
in the sanitizing fluid.
Dad (02:10):

You make it sound like you don'tclean the dishes.
When you
Norah (02:14):
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
It's not, not.
We, we rinse all the food off ofthem first and then we scrubbed
them with soap and then wedetermined the sanitizer.
Uh, I kinda just let them dry onthe drying rack until we got
really busy.
And then I had to kind of drythem in between so I could wash
stuff.
And at the end of the

your boss, your boss, not going to be real happy if you
make it sound like you'reserving people on dishes that
you did not clean all the
Norah (02:38):
No, we clean all the food off of them.
I would eat off the dishes.
It's just easier than I, Iguess.
No, I guess that's probably thesame as at home because it's
like, we, cause we use thedishwasher, so we scrub it
clean.
We don't use soap at home, butwe soap it there.
Dad (02:52):
we don't use soap.
We clean up dishes with soap,throwing.

because most of your friends didn't have
Norah (06:07):
No.
They went with each other.
Um,
Dad (06:11):
Which is, which is, which is a new thing.
Like when I was or newish, Ithink like when I was in high
school, we only had senior promyour high school, cause you're
only in 10th grade, but ninethrough 12, the whole upper
school goes to PR or gets to goto prom.
Norah (06:24):
Yes,
Dad (06:24):
Yeah.
So my high school only seniors.
went to prom.
Um, And yeah, only seniors.
Well, my, my high
Norah (06:31):
normally juniors and seniors.
Dad (06:33):
but my high school had 4,000 kids.
Norah (06:35):
Oh, well, Lakeridge has a hundred kids in
Dad (06:38):
Yeah.
My high school, had a lot ofkids.
Um, but yeah, but it was, we,they had a junior prom that I
didn't go to.
They had a senior prom that Idid go to, but like I needed a
date because people just didn'tgo in groups.
Like you went with it.
If you didn't have a date, youdidn't go to prom.
Norah (06:52):
Yeah, I wouldn't, I don't know,
Dad (06:54):
I couldn't even tell you now the name of my, like I don't
remember the name of my promdate.
I couldn't, I know she had red,hair, but I
Norah (07:02):
like red, like ginger hair or like dyed red hair.
Dad (07:05):
oh, no, no.
Like red, like ginger red hair.
Norah (07:07):

It's a.
Dad (07:09):
could not for the life of me tell you what her name was.
Um, she was a friend of afriend.
We went, we had a.
I would say a mediocre timeproblem.
Cause it was like a, it was likea first date for both of us.
Um,
Norah (07:23):
mean, I think I would prefer as Ryan and I both, like,
we both just prefer to like,stay at home, but it's like,
it's like fun to go for like alittle bit.
Dad (07:34):
do they still do, like prom king and prom queen?
Is that still a thing?
Norah (07:38):
that happens at like every school except for
Lakeridge.
I think, I don't know.
It doesn't happen at Lakeridge.
Dad (07:43):
one D do you know why?
Norah (07:45):

Oh no, maybe that was justsomething this year.
I didn't get a gift card, so,
Dad (07:58):
Oh,
Norah (08:00):

I'm trying to think if other, Imean, like I've seen other
schools do prom king and promqueen, just because like on
social media,
Dad (08:13):
and you don't do it.
You don't have like homecominghomecoming, king and queen.
Norah (08:17):
court.
I know a lot of schools dohomecoming court though.
Dad (08:20):
Yeah,
Norah (08:21):
We
Dad (08:22):
maybe Lakeridge doesn't want to, maybe there don't.
want to promote popularity.
I think the whole thing stupidanyway, like a giant popularity
contest to make the most popularkid in school feel good about
being the most popular kid inschool to me is really
Norah (08:35):

beautiful dress.

I would have fallen asleep.
I fell asleep on the way toRyan's house and then we were

like two and a half, threehours.
Norah (13:23):
she didn't have a ride.

(13:45):
parents that we had lost.
there.

but we kept doing them at schoolafterwards because Ms.
Rodriguez who's the theaterdirector at Lakeridge.
she didn't want to stay up thatlate or didn't want people
staying at that lake.
So if anything happened, she'dbe responsible for it.
like someone like fell asleep atthe wheel or if after she left

legal.
