So cool, Laura! Good luck.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Happy birthday Laura! Happy kayaking!

Because books.
Happy birthday, Laura! With added kayak! That's a cool gift.

Happy birthday, Laura! Kayaking sounds like such fun.
I think they still get paid not much compared to union-repped teachers, but they used to get paid something like $30 a month.
But is it as much as the non-union (which is normal) teachers at the same parochial school?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So cool, Laura! Happy birthday!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Happy birthday, Laura. Hooray, kayak! And best wishes for a quick mastery of entry.

I remember my old doctor was having a C-section and wanted to have her tubes tied at the same time, since they were already in there. Her OB couldn't do it because they were at a catholic hospital.
OMG it only got better for like, a MINUTE. And then it was eye-rolling MORE THAN EVER and there was NO HSQ because OMG IT IS SO OBVIOUS AND CLICHED!
Yes! There was one scene that was really moving and well done, and the rest was just stupid and obvious.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Kat, I don't know, but I have a friend at work who taught at a parochial school for a couple of years and I can ask her. (My guess is that they get paid a little less because they're also getting room and board, but I really don't know.)

I would also guess they can get paid whatever, but they'd give their extra money to the Church?
