Please read The Color of Distance by Amy Thompson. It was published thirty years ago and has basically been forgotten, but it is one of the best first contact novels ever written. (Also fun and colorful and not super heavy!) www.goodreads.com/book/show/46...

The $25 was for parking by the way

I have two kids, I paid a cumulative $25 for both deliveries (and I was hospitalized for almost a week both times). I also got a year of paid parental leave both times (and could have taken 18 months). These two children would not exist if we lived in the US.

I did win an incredibly boss hardbound, illustrated copy of of Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, though.

I took the SAT in 6th grade and scored the highest of any sixth grader in the country (1560 I think? Short of perfect is all I remember).

I am a thoroughly mediocre adult.
