Welcome to the system

Petra has now become an official person, part of the blobal bureaucratic Matrix! She received both her Kaiser card and her Social Security card last week. Kaiser I wasn't surprised about, but the SS card arriving stunned me! Such efficiency! I suppose they are hoping to start skimming her wages as soon as possible, but they are just going to have to wait 4 years before that!

Naw, I'm not going to force her into the sweatshop that young! Besides, earning power is greater if she graduates High School and College first. Alison and I are buying weekly Lotto tickets to be sure that by the time she is 18 we can afford Cal State Dominguez Hills. I don't think $20 million will be enough for Cal by then. Sad!
