"Sweetie, I love you, but your tendency to blow things out of proportion is not something I can deal with when we are not together." --- text from LD
Reasonable brain: "She's right. I should get a sense of perspective."
Sad sensitive brain: "Then don't send me passive aggressive, annoyed texts that you know will set me off in the first place, you jerk!"

Mr. Richard, the science teacher, and I have set up an after-school class. Well, "class" is stretching it. It is an hour-long outdoor game activity. We thought up variants of different playground games, and are letting first- and second-graders go wild with them. For this we are getting paid $60 each.
In some ways I have it unreasonably good.
