A bit of a catch-up post. Not much time for this 'cuz ye-ye and nai-nai are in town. For some reason, having extra adults in the house causes more work with the kids than less. Haven't figured that out yet.
I took a course this week that included a certification exam at the end of it. The exam was a real throwback to rote learning. Supposedly, big on definitions and terms ... except they only seemed to focus on the nouns, but then would throw in really vague verbs like "geared towards" ... wtf. OK, technically an auxilliary verb, but my point is - you don't see "A is geared towards B as 1 is geared towards 2" on the Mensa quiz.
But despite the grammarical injustice of it all, and the extra studying at night - it's really Spring here now. I've already swept out the garage for heaven's sake! We've barbecued! The girl has been the recipient of a robust scolding for blowing through a stop sign on her bike! Good times.
