I still can't draw a perfect circle!
I envy sara's productive day yesterday, as I lacked any productivity entirely.
I am so tired and rundown, so frayed at the edges, that doing anything beyond sleeping or reading is unlikely.
Up until the punching, it was a real nice party.

Neither can I! And I swear there's a purple that most of the rest of the world thinks is blue... and they're wrong.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That's incredibly dorky, the circle thing. My grade school art teacher yelled at us for having horribly imperfect "straight" lines. Mine still suck. It's why I prefer drawing people to buildings any day.
Lee, we don't need a handshake, since we never see each other. The T shirt should be ready any day now.
Promise.
I think my headache may be driving me insane.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I am fairly sure my sister knew the difference between pink and purple very early. I believe she's bright,but I also thought this was the age when kids vary so widely. I think my 3 year old nephew is a little behind in language skills, but I think it is because he speaks a mixture of Japaneses and english. sentence structure is a bit more complex when you hear two languages.
I'm in the lame club with Lee and Betsy!My life just lack co-ordination this weekend

My claim to fame is that I can't draw a straight line with a ruler

This is why the first time I drew a straight line with typesetting equipment was an orgasmic experience.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
We had a quarter of "architectural drawing" in 8th grade, and as far as I remember, we never got to drawing a straight line, because none of us could pass out of writing the alphabet in graph paper.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
My understanding is that IQ tests are comparative to others your age, and it doesn't sound impressive to me that she's a 152 compared to other two-year-olds. Though I don't know how/why they have a ready range for two-year-olds. I worry about her becoming insufferable though-- sounds like she's halfway there.
Today is a sad day-- Bob is leaving tomorrow to teach in A2 for the summer, and he'll be in Notre Dame for a post-doc after that. So y'all will be seeing more of me!

What?! Bob and bon shouldn't be separated by such vast geographic space. They need to be contiguous!
