Abnormal Psychology (09/22/2005)
Class Roster. Signups are now CLOSED.
The classroom is dark, with the shades pulled down and the windows underneath it painted black. The electric lights have not been turned on, but instead candelabras have been lit and placed throughout the classroom. On the desk sits a blonde, fair-skinned, rosy-cheeked porcelain doll in a black dress. The doll is missing its eyes. Behind the desk is a chalkboard that has been covered completely with scribbles of various colors of chalk.
Drusilla stands in the front of the room, waiting for her students to attend.
"Lesson one," she says simply as they walk in and take their seats. On each desk is a photocopy of a chapter of a psychology text on various psychological disorders and a sheet entitled "HOMEWORK: Find a picture of insanity."
"Understanding insanity. How do you understand it? How do you define it? Discuss. Ask questions of each other and of me. And remember--" She gestures to the doll and smiles. "Miss Edith will be watching for troublemakers. And I'm absolutely brutal about detentions."

She glanced up at Miss Edith. "I understand insanity as that unfortunate two months wherein my cousin Elberton took to wearing a suit with an orange tie and insisting that the family needed life insurance. Luckily, he recovered before Grandmother discovered that you aren't allowed to collect your own, even if you are clinically dead." Wednesday bit her lip, showing uncharacteristic indecision. "I am not certain how I would define insanity... because it would be different for everyone, wouldn't it?"

Oz -
Duce fed one of your socks to the gremlin. We're also having a Halloween Party at the Estate. Mother and Father had a seance, and Aunt Esmeralda suggested it then. It will mean boarding over the scorpion pit and making sure that the carniverous plants in the conservatory are fed really well... but Duce seems in favor. What do you think?

He scribbles a reply, after calculating that Halloween doesn't fall anywhere near the full moon-
