Algebra. Joy.

Given me Arabic teacher's still flat on his back in medlab, and my Hindi teacher's just done a bunk, and my science teacher seems to have forgotten to give us any homework this week (which is weird - McCoy's been away with the fairies this week, must be all the work in medlab), and music appreciation is all up to date... it looks like it's me and the algebra book.

Fuck.

Numbers brains? A little help?

You're in the same class as Kyle, right? I just ran over the basics of quadratics with him, so if you want a quick run-through, just grab me sometime.

Am also always up to lend a hand.

I ask you, what's the point of bloody letters in the middle of a perfectly normal sum?

Well, the perfectly normal sum only fits for that one particular case. The letters mean you can use it to talk about any variation on that one which is damned useful when you don't know which definite sum you're working with but need to figure it out.

Wait, was that one of thoes rhetorical questions?

Looks like the other two heavy-lifters of numbers already chimed in, but I'll offer my help if you still need any.

See, and here I was, about to make a joke about how numbers aren't very heavy, but then I remembered the size of Kitty's math backpack. That thing always makes me wonder why it doesn't have armies of orcs marching behind it chanting "Grond! Grond! Grond!"

This is why we love our PDAs, yes we do. Digital files weigh so much less.

Speaking of me, I finally come out of the hole of new books, so if you need a forth number worker, I've got you babe.

The radio is having a Valentine's Day special. It's not my fault.

Actually...

Your Arabic teacher is hobbling along with the use of a cane right now.

Classes will resume as per normal tomorrow. I'll do a general post about it. I'm a little battered still, but my eyes and my brain and my mouth still work fine.

Salaam,
