I just got an invitation to a wedding in the post. The wedding of a friend of mine from school. I think I'm hyperventilating. Why?! Why is she getting married?! She's twenty-one for Christ's sake!

I'll be rocking back and forth in the corner, forcing my brain into denial if anyone needs me.

That's right, Lizard too. She took a number of college courses in home-school high-school, didn't she?

Oh, on the freaky religious front, the parents of the McCaughey septuplets opted to send their seven little butts to school unlike they'd originally planed.

Good call.

She took a number of college courses in home-school high-school, didn't she?

Yes, b/c she's wicked smahhhht.

I saw this on sale for $180 off the list price. Want for my kids. I haven't thought of a justification yet though.

My wife has explicitly rejected home schooling materials that push religion (which is a lot of them) and went with a public school distance learning program instead. So although she is quite religious, the homeschooling is more of a distrust of the public schools to give enough attention to our daughter who can read, write, do math and only qualifies for kindergarten next year. Heck, if our daughter was six days younger she'd probably be in public school right now.

Gud, O's birthday is next month. Sadly, those kiddie cars don't fit the budget. They're wicked cool, though.

Doesn't Emmett attend a private school?

Dude, don't you think my hypocrisy filter would've prevented me from posting that if it were true? No, he does not.

However, he does go to school in the best public school district in northern california, a little sub-city which exists solely for the school district. His elementary school sits right next to University Village where UC Berkeley warehouses their grad students who have families - so his school is particularly overrun with high achieving smartypants.

eta: which is just to say I don't have to worry about the quality of this education, which is, without question, orders of magnitude higher than what I received.

A number of my college friends did that upon graduation. I decided it was as close to being betrayed in favor of The Man as I was likely ever to see in my humdrum existence.

ginger, i didn't realize i didn't have it up. It's salt_water_tears@yahoo.com.

Okay, hi hon's, homeschooling has it's positives and I'm sure it'll go fine.

settles into the nest....hugs her Cheerleader!Lex

Okay, like, guys, I still have the catapult. And the city's orden is that it can stay up for one week.

Who has any childhood issues that they need help solving with? Come on?

Can we attack Quebec? Or Maybe arizona? We Floridians are half a step away from amphibians.

Well, anyways, whoever we attack (AKA those who denied Cashmere her boob reduction), I will be prepared with water and puppet!Angel.
