Quick! What is 543,356 plus 999,999 minus 1,235,634,3434?

Well, that was a fun weekend. I spent two days learning about math. Remember math? Yeah, I did that all weekend.

Surprisingly, this is one thing that has improved with age. I can do math now. Go me. I might have a brain! (However,I should note that I think I would much rather have my cellulite improve at this stage in my life.)

More importantly, I will be able to help the babeola develop basic math skills as well as at risk kids (which is how I get paid for all this math). When time permits, I shall try to put together a comprehensive math skill post for kids.

Also,I have been tagged with a meme! Here we go!
