Hi! Thanks for coming. To reward you for your efforts I present a picture of my children as impromptu superheroes. Using what I hope were clean towels and blankets. (Who am I kidding. Of course they were clean!) (That was sarcasm, by the way. )
You know, I’m getting quite good at that lately. Sarcasm. Also, [...]

A fascinating interview with a woman who voluntarily had a trepanation done can be found here.
Reading about this procedure in the past has always filled me with a sense of horror. What a sickening thing to do to people. It never occured to me that people might actually do it voluntarily. Reading about her experience is very [...]

We’ve still got a roof over our heads, and money coming in.

There is a certain feeling of dread that fills me when I have to meet with a teacher. They will produce unfinished projects, half empty notebooks.

“What if I can’t do this? What if I [...]
