So you only have 30 per class today instead of 60? Have your numbers gone down? Because the last numbers I read about were ridiculously high.
25! It was nice today... we worked on college applications.
I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

I just applied for a Verizon store sales job. They want a copy of my high school diploma.
I'm right to be slightly depressed, yes?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's just weird. I mean, I get why it would be their standard process, but I'm sure there's a way around it.

Ann, that's a ferret.
The subway map reminded me of a question I've been meaning to ask the NYistas:
What neighborhood is East 62nd Street in? Think way, way East -- beyond York Street.
(If you're familiar with the Animal Medical Center, that's where I'm thinking of -- it's where Rigatoni was hospitalized, and I've been wondering which neighborhood of Manhattan it's in.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Council bans parents from play areas
Score one for Britain in its contest with the United States to create the stupidest fear-based society. The Watford Borough Council took the lead by banning parents from supervising their own kids in public playgrounds, "because they have not undergone criminal record checks."
The only adults allowed to monitor the kids are idiocracy-vetted "play rangers." The children's parents must "watch from outside a perimeter fence."

Generally I'd say "East Side" or "Upper East Side". I think specifically it might be "Yorkville" but it might be too low for that. [link]

Because books.
I think it's too low for Yorkville. It's sort of the Sutton Place neighborhood, isn't it?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
They're in my neighborhood, AND I know where they go to church. hee.
I need to make one for mac. I also need to really get serious about saving NY stuff so I can make him a scrapbook once we are gone.
I'm starting to have a hard time with the reality of leaving.
Fred - I'd call that Yorkville, but could well be wrong. I know that hospital, went once with my Baxter when his diabetes started transitioning to cancer.

It seems too high for Sutton Place somehow...
The Wikipedia articles seem to put it on the cusp of each. I'd say "its a bridge trashing a chunk of a formerly lovely neighborhoods" Like my neighborhood! [link]
(It's amazing what a bridge or tunnel can do. Above or below you can come back, but right there? It seems to stay good and dodgy.)
