Moon-lines and Apple-pathways

'Cause that's what this entry is.

First things first: sign-ups are going on now at sherlockmas! They continue until the 14th, so hurry hurry to give (and get!) the gift of Sherlock this holiday season. :) From the fun we've been having in the comments, I can tell this is going to be a very lively exchange!


I may be getting more hours at work, which is good! (I am BROKE, yo!) It's also bad, because I am exhausted.

Cute things that happened today:
♥ Max (the student who asked if atheists are allowed to celebrate birthdays) spent a good five minutes trying to convince me to drop out of university so I could stay and be his math tutor forever. "But you're gonna leave, and you're gonna forget all about us!" MAJOR warm fuzzies! (And believe me, I could never forget this kid!)
♥ Aurora (my little ADHD diva) behaved like an ANGEL today, and began her hour by giving me a big hug.
♥ Joseph, a seven year old, told me a rather long and complicated story about an inside joke he and his little friend came up with in art class that involved a play at school that is (apparently) titled Honk, Jr. He was laughing so hard I could only understand every couple of words.
♥ Less cute and more disgusting: Enzo (also seven) treated me to a rather long and informative monologue on the benefits of mucus, in honor of my lingering cold. (Apparently the germs stick to the mucus, and the white blood cells come and kill them.) He then went on to describe the phenomenon of "ear mucus", which might be the most disgusting concept ever. (It turns out he meant ear wax.)

(I googled it: apparently, there IS a play called Honk, Jr!)
