How rugby and Carrie Underwood brought me back to life
Six months ago, my appendix burst. This was one of the most excruciating things I’ve ever felt, and I do not recommend it. Still, I survived and I do recommend that. The recovery period was brutal. I am not the best patient under any circumstances, but this laid me out physically, emotionally and psychologically. There […]
Freedom for the Solar Federation!
It is too nice to be indoors working today, even if 2112 is playing as I type. These are from my mid-afternoon constitutional:
