Getting Our Kid Enrolled In School

We need to get our kid enrolled in elementary school. Linda and I have finally decided to join a local parish (when we were going regularly we were driving almost 30 minutes away). We are joining partly because it is close, partly because it has a good reputation, partly because my aunt and uncle go there, and partly because it has a very, very good elementary school associated with it. I'll leave it to you to figure out the various "percentages of importance".

Membership is important, because we need our child to get enrolled into this elementary school, as parishioners get a 30% discount on tuition and there can be quite a wait since we live in a "booming" area. I would feel terrible if we didn't get our kid in there!

Notice I'm not naming our kid. Why, might you ask, is that the case? Easy: (s)he hasn't been born yet. Congratulations, you might say, Linda must be pregnant. Nope. We haven't started trying to conceive yet.

Nope, we don't have a child, we haven't started to conceive, and we already feel behind in trying to enroll our child in elementary school. If that isn't messed up, I don't know what is!

ps. Linda rejected my idea that we use a year's tuition to buy a big-screen TV and use it to help home school our children. *sigh*
