They decided not to hold him back, but he may be in tutoring for most of the next 2 years for writing.
The one point sucks, but it may be a blessing in disguise. Having the extra tutoring at his age will make a huge difference for him in high school.
Yay Mac!
I also like Jesse calling out the guys go wear super super long shorts (but those aren't capris!)
A few years back at the Prudential Center I saw a group of teen boys walking by, one of them in oversized shorts that were effectively culottes, and barely restrained myself busting out laughing. While guys can rock the kilt look, split skirts are an entirely different matter.
What Pix said. That's the sorta intervention stuff my mom did in the past few years.
She's officially retiring this summer! I tease her that it means she'll still be doing most of the same stuff, but not get paid (she works at the school in their neighborhood, can't imagine she won't work as a volunteer.)
msbelle, next time you come out east, you HAVE to meet my neighbors. You'd love 'em. Really, I could just call them my friends, but neighbors distinguishes them from my other friends. Now if I could just unite north and south....that may be my goal for the summer. Throw a to-do to get them together. Even the ones who didn't have good first impressions (and I totally see how that could happen in those cases, but really, they need to get beyond that. Don't need to be bestest friends or anything. Just realize they aren't so bad.)
Um, who am I?
Storming here madly.
Maybe if mac will go to a summer camp next year I can come east solo!!
Doing yardwork in skirts and dresses is one of my many steps to becoming Weezer.
