Your thoughts are my thoughts. Hello fellow thought-haver!

This. I was 32 when the first of my college acquaintances became a grandparent. It was an Appalacian tale of sadness and woe, though. At 42 one of my co workers became a grandma of a very wanted and planned baby, which was a “whoah” moment for me.

Passbook savings Ftw!

This. This is why I try to avoid online classes. And if adult classes are this lame, how is it possible that online charter schools are any good at all?

I love Pan’s Labyrinth but I will never watch it again. It is too brutal. There were a ton of kids in the theater when I saw it. I wonder how high their therapy bills are.
