I loved that HEMA site!
And I think I learn best by doing. And also by analogizing. I can always come up with, "Oh, it's like this really different-on-the-surface other thing in this one specific way!"

Has anyone posted this comic about Quantum Fetish Mechanics to the board yet?
I'm pretty sure someone did, because I remember "Schroedinger put his cat in the box because it was CREEPING HIM OUT."

Are you a visual learner? In an immersion situation, there are a lot more visual cues.
Visual and aural, I think.

I'm really losing it today. I just replied to an email from someone more on my boss's level than on mine basically saying that my boss is an idiot. Oops.
Also, my boots are backordered 7-10 days, or so they claim.

Something to set on those who must be stabbed.
And, finally, for those who, like me, love the Discovery Channel.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I LOVE the Jamie ICHC. I sent that some fellow MythBusters-obsessive peeps yesterday.

The roads were seriously bad in places, possibly the worst I've driven on barring complete impassability. Parts of one road were iced up smooshed slush. I seriously wondered if my tires had gone flat, it was so bad.
And now it is sleeting. I contemplated covering my windshield but just wanted to get inside.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Ugh. That's me entirely, as much as it shames me to admit it. And I have no doubt that it stems from being told growing up how smart I was, and being praised for it, etc.
Yeah, me too. I still sometimes feel like I've basically coasted my whole life. I know Wallybee finds me to be a weird mix of conceit (I prefer to think of it as haughtiness) and self-denigration (I prefer to think of that as haughtiness too, but it's harder to construct a logical explanation).
Of course, if I decide something is fun, then the obsessiveness kicks in.
