  • In which I learn H.o.p. doesn’t like PETA

    Last night, I told Marty about PETA going after Obama for swatting the fly, and H.o.p. overheard. Now, I’ve never said a word about PETA, and H.o.p. loves animals, but it was immediately apparent that somehow someway this eleven-year-old had educated himself about PETA on the web, I didn’t know when or why, but he…

  • Party on Peachtree Street

    After midnight and many are celebrating. People yelling out their balconies around the block. I followed the honking horns up to Peachtree Street where cars were streaming up and down, honking horns, a lot of joy to share around. I came back home and rounded up H.o.p. and Marty and we three returned to Peachtree…

  • We’re Doing Our Math and Right Now H.o.p.’s liking it

    Since we began our homeschooling year at the end of August/beginning of September, I’ve just not had the time for much of anything but homeschool, which means projects like the UFO interviews have gone back burner for now. We are especially deep into math right now. Gotta tell you, last year we got Timez Attack…

  • In which H.o.p. visits Club Penguin

  • In Which H.o.p. Gives Up On Me

    H.o.p. has a pretty good sense of humor.  And he’s been doing what he can to cultivate it, with intention. He spends his Friday nights watching the old Monty Python’s Flying Circus on BBC and chuckling, guffawing, laughing uproariously.  He has a great appreciation for absurdity.   Last night it was blancmange aliens turning the English…
