I went to public schools in a town that was generally considered to have some of the best schools in the state, and I hated just about every minute of it. (OK, there were a few things I like, and it's where I met the girl who's still one of my best friends.) I really think I would have done better in a "worse" school where there wasn't so much pressure.
This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I look more rad than Lutheranism
ION, everything seems A-OK for us to return the Guest Pets tonight. (Well, by "us," I mean "The Boy." I intend to go to bed exceedingly early tonight [like, as soon as The Boy leaves], because I feel rotten rotten rotten today.) Friend got back today, and we haven't gotten a panic-laden message that his house was nuked from orbit, so back the pets go tonight. Thank god.

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

Someone tell me to stay away from all blogs about weight loss and fat activism, okay?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
We've decided that she can go there for kinder and we can resume the search for a better school for 1st grade
I will note that I made a strategic error in trying to get Emmett into public schools for first grade instead of kindergarten.
There are thirty openings at the kindergarten level for the best schools. There are only going to be five or six openings at those schools at the first grade level, because the kindergarten kids move up and the only slots open are from kids who move away.
Not to stress you out, but just something to factor in.
