Timelies all!
The wacky weather continues. Highs in the 60s today and tomorrow, but possible snow showers on Friday.
You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I started struggling with math at that age because my handwriting was so bad that I couldn't keep all the columns straight.

Man, after actually getting some stuff done yesterday, more than on recent Sundays, I was hoping I would be able to come home and do some more today, but no. Tired.

Librarian Warlord
Burrell, my sister is not too far from you in Culver City, and is a math professor. She's has, in the past, tutored various kids around the neighborhood. She doesn't do it for free, of course, but she doesn't do it for the money either - just when she wants to help a friend's kid. If you'd like me to ask her if she'd work with Franny, or if she can recommend someone who could, I'd be glad to do so. She might have advice on how you can work with her if your not to the point of hiring a tutor. My profile addy is good.
Meanwhile, it is Sprng Break at my school and that means it is time to play, "What's that smeall?!?" They always do maintenance and big cleaning jobs while everyone (not me) is gone. They are stripping the floors of the atrium for the next day or two, and it stinks.

Right, atrium /= arboretum. Check.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh wow Sparky, yes, please! That would be great. She has a tutoring class now but we are not in love with it, in part because they keep telling us she's all prepared for the test, and then it turns out she's been blowing them. Not that I expect them to magically make her problems go away, but I did kind of expect them to let us know she was still flailing if that was the case.
I'll send an email

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Man, I wish student loans were more like car loans or something -- I finished paying off a big one, and didn't even know until they mailed back my overpayment! So, yay (!!), but that was kind of anticlimactic.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I have to go return things to the library but I don't wanna get up.

Congrats!
ETA: um, to Jesse. Commiseration to Dana.
