  • At war with the squircommies

    Remember the classic line in the movie THE SHINING “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy”? Well, no work and all play makes me a killer.

  • Book: not too interesting

    I looooove bringing books home from the library. The act has an exceptionally satiating effect on me.
