Raccoon may have distemper [most likely] they are nocturnal and not at all friendly unless they are sick or retarded.
This is making me happy a nice heifer calf and her Mom with their eyes all aglow!

Lil' Griff just got her first SAT scores back. Perfect score on the reading section and damn good on the math and writing. This is going to get expensive.
:edit She just looked up the average SAT scores to be accepted to a bunch of schools she has looked at. She meets that criteria for all. Haverford, Cornell, Vasser, Bard, Hamilton, and Welles. I'd assume her public choices were covered as well. *yikes*

What's she plan on studying? These days it makes no financial sense to send her to some high priced college to get a degree in medieval French literature.

It'll be all worth it when she drops out Junior year to tour with her punk band.

Right now archeology is the draw. I keep turning her away from teaching but she like the idea of being a middle school teacher. She was interested in biology when she was younger but had one bad science teacher who turned her off. If she goes to a school that doesn't expect a declared major for a couple years I could see her reattach to science.

eta - to be fair, I should add that she's doing customer service for an online horse supplement company and mucking stalls in exchange for riding lessons. But she's ditched her plans to work for a national or international-level dressage stable or do equine rehab. The cleaning job is her main income.

I think Harvard has a few scholarship spots for punk rockers. Or maybe I'm thinking of varsity rowers?
