Well, there was some mnemonic which she could only remember half of, which I pointed out means the mnemonic didn't really work.OK, I'll pass that on. I thought that was true, but it was 6:30 in the morning, math is not exactly automatic for me at the best of times.

Thrive to spite them
Val--that sounds like homework I should be doing! I need to take that up with my therapist on my next appt. Also the diary cards.
My computer was working better, however if I have another problem I'm going to demand money back.

"Somewhere in this building is our talent." Toby Ziegler, my spirit animal
I just reminded myself of on The Wire, when a young dealer teaches the other other guys chess by using terms from the street they know already...like a bishop is like the stash because it moves all the time, pawns are like soldiers cause they just gotta "stand there and die."
"Unless they some smart-ass pawns," one guy says.
I think I got the math equivalent.
