About Me
- IM
- I use this blog to write about my life primarily. I don't post regularly, but I try to get at least 2 posts in a month and sometimes more. I'm about to start a masters in history after 15 years as a catering chef. I like goals, even if I don't reach all of them.

Ian, I'm so honored that you've made my humble post required reading. Thanks.
I'd like to second the hilarity of this post, but I always thought everyone in the family would be completely humorless if it weren't for me.
Of course Emily, you are the queen of humor-management, but froshty heads the research and development department.
I loved that post. Entropy Cottage -- what a great name for a home. Our family home was lovingly called the Confetti Factory by my mother, since we were all dedicated to making little pieces out of big pieces.
