In a haze
Seeing as I'm completely useless today for reasons I'm about to explain, I think it's about time to post another update!
Our kitty has been good. So good! He's been walking on his harness and leash like a little pro. I'm so proud of him and gosh darnit if he doesn't just look adorable. Here is him on a walk:

Summertime is far too short

Latin has absorbed 8 weeks of my time, 8 hours per day plus at least 3 hours of homework per night-- generally performed daily with some degree of consistency. That's a lot of time. The benefit of this labor is a fairly decent ability to read Latin. I can now understand most of ( Read more... ) -
Fitting all summer into a month and a half
It's been a roasting hot couple of weeks and almost all my extracurricular summer plans had to fit into them. Oh, but firstly:
