For my family and friends overseas wondering about the fires… We are very fortunate in that the worst we’ve had to deal with is smoke and crappy air quality. There are a lot of folks who are a lot worse off. The firefighters are volunteers who are underfunded and underresourced, and they’ve been working for weeks. Homes and lives have been lost, and wildlife has been decimated. And temperatures are forecast to be well over 100F across a lot of the country this weekend. 🙁
Important Note
This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
