[witchofthechalk]

Has anyone noticed if fathers day is going the same way as mothers day?

[Action for England also has a gift for him]

Happy Fathers Day

[That is one thing she will never acuse him of being]

July?

...that's the next month right? Who's birthdays are in July?

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

... Nobody.

Sorry. Temper got the best of me. Do you know what season your birthday was in? Maybe we can narrow it down from there.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

[She looks thoughtful]

I think it was near the beginning of autumn.

[so just making this up...]

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

I'll get you a nice present for October, then.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

You don't have to...

Now is there anything else you'd like to do?

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

Well... While you're here. Is school going all right with you?

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

[She nods]

It's a little strange but I'm getting used to it. My world is quite different from this one though so it's only natural.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

Are you getting good grades, at the very least?

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

I think so.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

That should have been a very firm and definite "of course."

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Should it?

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

You don't know your grades?

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Are those the letters they give us?

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

Right. What did you get for it?

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

For what? They give us lots of them.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

For math, then.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Math. I think I got a B

[She does not like math]

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

I'll be giving you extra lessons, then.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Alright.

[Seems quite interested actually]

Do you know a lot about math?

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

I used to be interested in America's education, so I'm used to teaching a bit of it, at least.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

Do you know why we have negatize numbers? It seems like a waste of time to me.

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

Those are important in the higher maths. It's just good to grasp the concept and recognize it.

And there's nothing wrong with a little negativity.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

But they don't exist. How can you have a negative amount of something?

[is-an-island.livejournal.com]

Well, you're quite looking at this the wrong way.

[the-wee-big-hag.livejournal.com]

How should I look at it then?
