  • Skiing

    I went skiing today for the first time in my life. I fell down a lot. This resulted in many bruises and stiff joints. At one point I started crying in frustration. And I abandoned the slopes halfway through the day…

  • Dork Quotient

    Here you go: as requested, a ridiculously over-thought-out post about what I meant by "dork quotient" in my last post. Dork quotient is a very unscientifically derived number which indicates how embarrassed a "normal" pe…
