Wm actually got up with me this morning and did exercises! Steve, meanwhile…did not. BUT, Steve got amazing news last week! He is getting a very sizable bonus for being awesome at work. I decided he deserved a PS4 for Christmas so I went on the hunt. But they were NOWHERE (literally every place on the planet is sold out). Using my wiles and nerd allure, I managed to get someone at GameStop to tell me exactly when their next delivery was coming and showed up and snagged one. Since it cost one million dollars, Steve got an email from our credit card company saying that someone had spent millions of dollars at GameStop - so I figured why make him wait until Christmas? Needless to say, Steve was VERY HAPPY about the PS4.

| Farewell XBox, we hardly knew ye |
Wm has found a love of computer programming. They did a quick unit on it at school and showed the kids a little game they can play that teaches them the basics of programming. Wm LOVES it and spends all his time on the computer working on it now. He just programs a tiny snail to move across the screen in a pattern, but he finds it endlessly entertaining. It's hilarious, though - he's exactly like my students: he will work on his code forever, then click to start it, but there will be an error someplace so it doesn't run right and he has a giant fit. The other thing that annoys him is that Schroeder wants to lay on the keyboard while he's working. Wm screams, "NO, CAT! Go away!!!!" But Schroeder is not deterred and this goes on the ENTIRE time Wm is typing away.
