Yes, there’s a new one today, to go with the resumption of my blog. Have fun! Feedback on the Sad Libs is always appreciated.

She was originally called Spike by her previous owner, and came to live with us in the Fall of 1997. We think she was around 4 years old or so then, but we’re not entirely sure. Nematode liked to sit under blankets and such, and also liked to lay down on the other cats. She … Read more

Went to Philadelphia this past weekend, and took in the Bodyworlds exhibit at the Franklin Institute. It was extremely fascinating. Seeing real human internal anatomy in person was well worth the admission price, especially since one’s only other option would be going to med school (the only other legal option, anyway).

I have installed WordPress software on my site, so I now have a functioning blog again. Expect new posts now, and for the old ones to be imported here soon.

Here’s the front cover, i.e. the part to the right of the fold: I didn’t notice the wraparound nature at first. So you can imagine my … Read more

This year, we’ve noticed one of our cats, Nematode, losing weight. We took her to the vet in August when we thought she was below 8 pounds (normal weight for her is 10 or more), and found that she was actually 8.4. We just checked her again and found she was 7 pounds, and took … Read more

Yes, that’s right, I’m talking about pizza made with pumpkin. It’s actually very good. I had first made it a few years back, based on a recipe we got from someone, but recently I wanted to do so again and couldn’t find the recipe. So I made some up. I modified an existing crust recipe … Read more
