Update: currently arguing with the same kiddo over whether the score is falling down from the sky or “melting up”. My position is not prevailing. Thinking I might use BlueSky solely to keep you updated as this situation continues to develop…

You’ll never guess which department benefits most under the budget changes adopted by the City Council today.

Update: she’s crying because her hair is “super super super ruined”. On the bright side she’s giving me instructions to do better next time.
