Ds is taking the ERBs tomorrow. Give me the codes: When they say you have a spirited boy, that means he won't sit down and listen. What else? I'd love to know what anyone said to you and what you think that meant. Thanks. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I no longer live in nyc, and this stuff sounds so absurd to me now with some distance. Isn't this living in a total pressure cooker? [ Reply | More
