My understanding of Catholicism is that that would still be a heretical viewpoint. Unless I'm really turned around and you were actually saying "YES. That would be a heretical POV."

No. It's heretical. It's just not contoversial or really a huge debatable point.

I suspect the two of you'd get along quite well. Oh, did I mention that in running the reading program for second graders, she's managing the high school tutors? She's always taught elementary and Head Start with no interest in the upper levels, but she so enjoys the teens. I'm getting almost as many stories about them as I am the little ones. I find this interesting given the terror that my brother was at that age. I figured it permanently put her off that age.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Sorry to be so dense, Kat. My workplace sucks my brains right out of me. Hey! My employer is a zombie!

I think that teens are good fun, and different when you aren't their classroom teacher but you are still working with them.

Speaking of adolescents! Two of my students are in an art show, from work they did with my class, at the LA City Hall. Funnily enough, it's a kid from my current school and a kid from my previous school. Wacky, right?

So cool! I can't go to the reception they are having because I'll be out of town. I'm so happy for them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Pfah. I'm pissed

Well, sure, it would be annoying in the world of iTunes. In the world of launch, it was great.

Kat, that's so cool! Go your kids.

Also, ita, I have lovesexy track by track. Do you want me to see if I can zip it up and email it to you or mail it to you or something?

That's awesome.

I suspect being their "boss" makes a bit of difference. Though she has had to pound "work ethic" into a lot of heads. The kids get class credit and a stipend of sorts, which annoys her because some sign up just to get out of regular classes. She disabuses them of that pretty quick (or kicks them out of the program.) Honestly, I think they should get rid of the credit. If it is a job work-study style, it should just be that.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Dude. Spirit Airlines is having a $20 each way sale from Ft Lauderdale or Orlando into Kingston or Montego Bay. Tickets to Florida ain't that expensive. Hmmmmmmmmmmm.
