I'd Love to See the Reaction
I'd Love to See the Reaction
Hippie German School sent home a survey for the parents about all sort of things -- Who they could hit up for money? What we love/hate about the place? What we do for a living? What our top three sources of news and current events are?
I'm not sure which is going to annoy people more -- that I chose to call myself a housewife or that my top three news sources were NPR, blogs and National Review.
I listen to NPR all the time in the car and it drives the kids nuts.
I heard a wonderful interview with Albert Brooks about his new movie and I can't wait to see it.
What a funny man.
Jordana,
Have you blogged fully about what you like about the HGS and why you chose it? I'm presuming it's a Waldorf school and there are some things that intrigue me about the movement...
On forms like that I develope a serious attitude in regards to my vocation. I'll put down anything from dog and child management to domestic goddess. If it is a check the box thingy I'll go for reasearch or education as the field and CEO as the position. Sadly I never get any feedback.

Personally, I enjoy writing "Kept Woman" as my occupation on forms. That was liberals and conservatives can be equally offended. :)
