Usually pay off the full amount, but I'm temporarily carrying some pretty high credit card bills in between a home sale, and just now got a notification that my credit line has been increased... which is helpful but feels SO SKEEZY.

@Dr_DylanJackson My pleasure!

[Amy Dusto @AmyDusto]

Kid just looked at the clock and said we have a semicircle of time left and that's now how I want to refer to a half hour also wonder if it's a good time to discuss radians

[Amy Dusto @AmyDusto]

I very much enjoyed this.

Child wanted to read a grown up book for bedtime, I said too long, he said it's OK, we can just read the first and last page. We did. Surprisingly fun way to revisit a book.
