This morning I was working with a new 10-year-old, correcting his sloppy multiplication sheet. I had just corrected three other ambiguously legible sheets, and I decided to speak up.
"Good job," I said, handing it back. "But it's a little messy."
"That's because I have a broken arm."
I looked at him. His right arm was indeed in a cast. Oops.

I had a fabulous night with the roommates tonight (reminiscent of 2009's great nights – shout out to Shawna). Bunking class, eating out, hot tubbing...and now being incredibly unhealthy and watching a chick flick. And not just any chick flick – a chick flick masquerading as some sort of realistic life portrayal. "He's just not that into you" pretends it's different, but the two main lovebirds end up together.

This is sooo weird. I started reading a "friendship doctor" type blog really recently, too. Mine turns on her writers...

Haha, ok there's a link next to your article titled "Introverts and parties – just add alcohol?"
Interesting take on introversion.
Is it accurate? The bit about "springing friends on people" at a gathering cracked me up.
Did I ever send you this one? http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/28/magazine/28depression-t.html
I know I told you about it...
