Have any of you ever worked for the AEC? (I know Kristin Apolony has.) I’m considering volunteering as a poll worker for the next election here. You have to pledge to be “politically neutral” and I’m not quite sure what falls under that. I’m pretty sure that “volunteering to support democracy” probably counts as partisan activity in certain, uh, large countries in the world.


I’m making good progress on the alpaca beanie I’m knitting for Rodd to match his scarf. No pattern; I’m just making it up as I go. #knitting



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.
