"Some dummy built this pencil wrong.
The eraser's down here where the point belongs.
And the point's at the top; so it's no good to me.
It's amazing how stupid some people can be."
--Shel Silverstein
I'm not stupid, I'm just slow to work things out. This means I get really good overall grades, but I suck at speed work, like timed tests in math. So don't expect anything witty and original out of me in conversation. I am the queen of esprit de l'escalier. Message me if you want to know what that means, or just look it up yourself. I'm also a grammar freak, so keep that in mind.
