Correspondences

With severely inadequate apologies to M. Baudelaire....

This morning M had her wisdom teeth out and C took a college math equivalency exam. Who suffered more? C, because she had no anesthesia.

M had anesthesia while J played with his gameboy. Who was less aware of the passage of time? Neither!

M has swollen cheeks and awoke from her drugged slumber in floods of tears. The nurse said all the girls do that. For once M did not bridle at the sexism of the suggestion... she said, well, that's biology! I made her a mango and vanilla yogurt shake with ginger ale. It is helping.

C passed her test -- now she can get her NYS teacher accreditation.

A big day.
