It snowed here last night, on the mountaintops - snow in this part of South Africa is pretty rare, so my friend picked me up and we went driving over one of the local mountain passes to go through the snow, and took the doggies with us. This was just after coming down the pass on the other side into the town of Franschoek.

@ND3JR Hey, how have you been?
I've been doing little else lately but working and dealing with my back pain. Had an MRI yesterday. Don't get old, kids. It sucks.
I want to move off this couch but Freyja looks so content laying against my leg. I don't have the heart to disturb her. #Cats #MastoCats

By the way, I speak on climate change, historical topics and the intersection of law and climate change. I was just working on a presentation to use history to teach critical thinking to business executives.
Lately I've been picking up some contacts that might lead to speaking gigs. And I already have one gig booked for June 26! Exciting that it's happening so fast.
Extra passenger in the Lyft car that picked me up this afternoon. 😉
Would it be okay if I asked for boosts?
I'm an audiobook narrator on ACX and Findaway looking to build my list. I particularly love narrating books with science fiction and fantasy elements.
If you're an author looking to commission audio versions of your short stories or novels (on ACX, Youtube, or elsewhere!) I'd really really love to hear from you. I adore this work and would like to do more!

I live with pain every day of my life. This is what it's like. Look at that chair: what it's like to live with chronic, severe back pain.

Don't you hate it when that cute heavy metal guy you're friends with on social media not only cuts his hair and stops wearing metal gear, but now you only ever see him in a suit and tie looking like an insurance salesman. 😕
After 25 years of back pain, today a doctor looked at an X-ray of me and identified exactly what was causing it. And he said most other doctors would have missed it. I'm still in pain, but I feel like we at least know where the road to recovery looks like!

No one who knows anything about Roseanne Barr's history of racism and conspiracy nuttery should be at all surprised at what happened today. But at least now that awful show is off the air.
My back is in terrible, severe, excruciating pain. Kids, don't get old if you can avoid it.
