RIP Boo Boo 1998-2011

It’s time to make this post. It’s a post I’ve been avoiding for a couple of weeks, but it has to be done. It belongs behind a cut, because it’s sad and unappetizing. For those of you who visit via an RSS reader, and don’t care to read sad things about animals, let this opening … Continue reading »

Hello World

Time for another public-realm update. This month has proved to be exhausting for me so far. I spent 7.5 hours a day interpreting last week, which as my interpreter friends can tell you is exhausting. Interpreting requires about twice the brainpower as most other jobs, because you are concentrating intensely all the time, with no … Continue reading »
