About this blog
This blog is based around a single idea:
Life is hard. I know this from experience, you know this from experience. But the good news is that nobody is fighting alone, and I think that’s easy to forget. This blog is mostly about me and the battles that I fight. Even though life is hard, that doesn’t make it bad. The world is a beautiful place, and we’re all in this together.
Everything I write is obsessively catalogued by subject tags which you can see over to the right. Some of my favourite tags are Lists Lists Lists!, Chicago I love you, photos & (of course!) wondertwins. Check out my greatest hits for a list of entries I love more than usual. You can also scour my site with the search bar (also to your right) and check out entries from a particular year with the drop-down menu. Haven’t I made this easy for you? I am nothing if not serious about my archiving.
Also, the quote about being kind? It’s often attributed to Plato or Philo, but neither of them ever said it. Apparently it was the personal motto of some dude named John Watson. I like to think he was the John Watson who hung out with Sherlock Holmes. Whoever he was, he had the right idea.
