Back to the salt mines

Ana & David have gone back to Houston, and Edoarda & Stephen have returned from Nicaragua, bearing gifts and lbs.

Today was my first day back at work. I researched the prices of various editions of Plato — one of our teachers hopes to assign Republic to his highschoolers (God bless the International Baccalaureate). Not that I’m envious. Due to the budget, they’ll probably end up reading Jowett. … After I finished working, my church friend Karin drove me home, which spared me some agony since the temperature was close to zero. … On Wednesday it may be too cold to work at all. M&M are praying for the city to be Snowed In.

I ask E&S if the first sentence is too harsh. They reassure me that it isn’t. “It’s the truth.”

Edoarda: “You can just say that we came back hermosos.”

I ask them for permission to quote these things because lately I’ve been worrying that my teasing is too cruel.
