Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Kids I used to babysit for would stay up until whenever their dad got home from work, which was often 10pm or later, and they did OK. I don't know, I guess I feel like awake and home is different than out and about, but I guess it isn't so much for little kids, who can just drop off.

I still tsk tsk in my head at the little bunnies falling asleep on the subway late at night, though.

Nah, just wacky hard-core crunchy-granola Christians. I live in the south, yo. We got no Mormons. Christians, we got. The woman's parents were missionaries and she grew up in South America.

tommyrot: Yes. I'd get to Saint Paul earlier on a road-trip, but sure, that's my "into the city".

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So what are the common reasons parents do the homeschooling thing? Religious beliefs? School system sucks? Mother is a teacher?

I just bought a bunch of Christmas presents. Huh. Something caught my eye on overstock.com, and I just did it! I never do stuff early like that.

I'd guess those are them, for varying definitions of each.

Does anyone subscribe to Science magazine? There's a series of articles in the Nov 4th issue that I want to read.
