I have noticed that a lot of people, even a lot of my Bay Area hip-to-this-kind-of-thing friends, don't actually know what a CSA is, so I'm going to tell you about it. But first,... Patti Go. Now.

Put on her new (really new! A rare non-thrifted non-handmedown!) outfit.Left for school a first-grader, but she'll come home a second grader. Crazy.
