Testing

June 11, 2009

Today, possibly even as I type this, Rebekah is taking her placement test for college.  It will determine what her math and English requirements/options are, so it is not without importance, but at least its not super high-stakes.

Anyhow, I know the entire cast and crew of El Burro Volador are wishing her luck.  Except for Yevgeny.  I hate Yevgeny.

Also, her sprain is healing with uncanny speed.  One of her pixie contacts gifted her a magical salve made from wolf’s bane cut fresh upon the moors with a knife made from a fish’s jawbone and it is almost unnerving how quickly her ankle has mended.  Unfortunately, Clementine will not stop trying to lick it off, either because she thinks it is delicious or because she wants to prove that she can safely eat something called “wolf’s bane“.

In other news, I’ve done a ton of yard work today, and am currently cursing the unhappy hour in which I first set eyes on this wretched patch of earth.  It just fights you every inch of the way.
