Hi, reader. I wrote this in 2003 and it's now more than five years old. So it may be very out of date; the world, and I, have changed a lot since I wrote it!

If this post is particularly offensive or breaches someone's privacy, please contact me.

Nandini and I hung out last night most profitably. She gave me a Mardi Gras mask and we made pilaf and curry, and I got to introduce her to Josh Kornbluth, Get Your War On, and Penny Arcade.
Off to see Adaptation with Joe.
