Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Weird. Must be a livejournal issue. I'll email you.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Math is this weird place where we do allow people to stop engaging in learning it because they aren't good at it innately. And it's something we wouldn't let reading teachers get away with.

What about writing? And where does talent fit in? Is there a difference between "gifted" and "talented?"

And why not just say, "your kid has a talent for math"? It sounds different in my head, meaning-wise.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I hope I didn't sound like I was reproaching you.

Can you bring Mac to LA? It's a crime that I've never hugged him.

thanks Jesse - insent

Is there a difference between "gifted" and "talented?"

enough I guess to warrant both being used in the same sentence for G&T programs when I was growing up? Talented being that motley group who are not quite gifted?

oh, it didn't sound like reproach - it made me laugh.

I am hoping an LA trip this year if finances work out.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

It is FREEZING in my office. I'm tempted to go nab the heater from my coworker's, who is in the hospital right now, office. I feel a bit like a vulture though.
