The last few days...

We started out with moving Hayden to the next level at gymnastics. He moved a little early so he's smaller than the other boys. We go to Brown's for his lessons. The head coach there is Vladimir Artemov, who is a Russian gymnast with 18 medals, 10 of them are gold. Whelp, the normal teacher didn't come in and the other boys didn't show so Hayden's first class in the new division was with the Russian. It was pretty comical. I would have some awesome pictures of Hayden running laps with Vlad but my camera-phone decided that it was going to suck instead. Go Sprint! I do remember enough of my Russian that I was able to pick out what a Olympic gold medalist thinks about training a 5 yr old. Like I said... good times.

I signed up for discrete math and statistics for college this semester. I was hoping that the discrete math was going to be, you know, discrete... as in just coloring or talking about our feelings. Yeah, it's not. I think I'm pretty screwed in that department.

Speaking of screwed, I don't know what we are going to do about Hayden's school. I'll tell you what... after dealing with all these 'christian' schools... I wouldn't go to any of their churches! Talk about a bunch of elitist jerks! We're still in the same boat and I really don't know what to do. The public schools here in San Antonio are so bad they should be shut down... well the ones on our side of town anyway. I just don't understand how you can call your school an extension of your ministry and then only expect students who are professing Christians. It's retarded. If I try to be honest about what I believe they want nothing to do with Hayden. Yeah... that's open for you! Oh well, I'll figure something out.

After that I decided to get really, really sick to switch things up. It wasn't as much fun as the brochure said. I did get a copy of Beauty and the Beast which pacified the kids for a while. That was pretty cool.


After that I got better and started up on my college homework. Wish me luck!
