Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Is Matilda happy with the school?

Reasonably. The reality is that after going to school with all her same cohort of friends from K through 8, they are scattered everywhere in High School. But one of her good friends does go to this school, it's easy to get to, and it's close to Japantown (for after school ramen).

They do have a digital media class, and after school club, as well as a club that coordinates with the local Fashion and Design institute. And the aforementioned softball. This school has a good record of placing kids in the UC system.

The short answer: It's good enough.

The reality also is that she hates online learning and it's very difficult for her. So this is (hopefully) just something they have to deal with this fall.

I suspect it was Topic!Cindy's shaky fist that finalized the deal on Matilda's offer. I'm so glad there are many good aspects to the deal you got!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Congratulations Matilda!

Congratulations Gud Daughter II!

She's doing well, though maybe a little frustrated that she has a difficult time passing as female because of her voice and appearance.

Some clothes from eShakti might be nice - they have a custom measurement option that works well for women and girls who have a-typical proportions.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I second Trudy-Yay! Matilda, congrats daughter #2, and eShakti is great AND sells matching masks!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Yay, Matilda! Good school, close by, with a friend, and a club she'll probably enjoy - that's a jackpot.

I forgot to take my medicine last night, and this morning I'm up and functional two hours before I normally am. However, correlation is not causation.

Morning, Zen!

I, on the other hand, was wakeful a lot in the night, and when I got a leg cramp at 5 AM, went ahead and turned my alarm off, thinking that it wasn't likely I'd sleep right through to 7 AM, when my second alarm goes off to remind me to get dressed and ready for work.

And then I did fall deeply asleep, and the normally leisurely time I have to contemplate clothing choices et cetera has to get way sped up...

Thrive to spite them

Congrats Gud on your your younger daughter.

Yay Matilda getting a school.

I need a tiny bit of ~ma to get through he day. I have my DMV appointment today. I also need to get an ink cartridge for my printer because I think that's he only thing keeping it from working right. Otherwise I'll have to get a new printer. I need to send my phone back for warranty repair still and ...I hope it's not a USPS label. I hate saying this but at this point if I send it out who knows if I'll get my phone back ever.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Yay for the Buffista sprog! Gud's younger daughter finds herself and is comfortable enough to come out, and Matilda gets not only a school but a good school!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I had an appointment to get tested this morning, but as I was reading through the email confirmation link of things to know - it said I needed a note from my Dr and would be turned away without it. Nothing about needing that while making the appointment, so I think it is wrong, but I do not want to drive 20+ minutes only to turn around, so I will call the help line at 9am and ask and make another appt if I can.

ION I am up and online well before I need to be for work for the first time in a while, so huzzah.
