Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

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

Matilda is crying because her homework assignment is to watch a David Attenborough video, and it's showing animals dying. And that's basically like snuff porn horrible to her.

"Who wants to watch animals dying?!!!"

She had a similar issue with one of her fiction reading assignments. She's a sensitive girl.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Poor, Matilda.

Relatedly, does anyone want a sweet-tempered, tall, turns 18 in August 2021, assistant/guest/nanny/etc. next year? Working on driving. Cooks. Doesn't do homework.

Tempting! We might have an extra room by then. Driving NSM an issue in SF. Homework even less so.

Thankfully, it doesn't look like she'll have to dissect a fetal pig any time soon.

Question, I didn't sign up for the card exchange last year because of the personal message requirement, and we do picture cards that usually don't have a space for that. After I didn't sign up people said I could have sent those. So, are picture cards okay? Cute picture cards of ltc.

I filled out the form, msbelle, but FYI, I couldn't get the return to work in the address section, sorry! I put the address in anyway, and I'm updated on the b.org Master List, too.

Thanks for arranging!
