Thanks, all.
How was your holiday, tommy?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It was OK. I was fighting off a cold. Had Thanksgiving dinner with my parents and brother at a restaurant on Thursday. Friday my sis and family arrived--sis and gf cooked thanksgiving dinner for us on Saturday. So that was nice. Also, it turns out both my sons are mathematical geniuses. (Both are in the top percentile, anyway.)

Also, I had a nice trip to Tuscaloosa the weekend before. Had a lot of fun at a Crimson Tide game and we watched lots of Doctor Who. After I left, Monica had a bad anxiety attack. When she suffers anxiety she needs to withdraw from people to some extent. So we're taking a break from each other for a while.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
oh sarameg, thinking of you and MK. We are in a similar place here, but I am just settled to being with Burrell for as long as she's here.
Suela, your work pisses me off.

And since I've been gone for so long, I have to come back with a bunch of wrong:

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Mathematical geniuses is good.
I'm sorry you and Monica are taking a break. Is it likely this is a temporary thing from being overwhelmed? I hope so.

Burrell, thank you for the groupon PSA about Donors Choose! I should go buy one or two so I could finish funding my project. The groupon link is here: [link]
Kat, what is your Donors Choose currently?
Cass, my current one is here: [link] Starting next monday they are going to match all donations that are made not through a coupon or certificate. But I still have $750 to go and I'm struggling.
(Was it you reading Stiff? Mom brought her library copy for me to read while she was here for last week. I thanked her for braving the $1 fine and I finished it last night just about her bedtime. Perfect.)
I love that book! I just started teaching it again today. FUN!

Yikes Tommy.

I hope so too. Anyway, that's what she's thinking.
