twenty-seven years and one million words

Kokubunji, 2024.02.12

While cleaning the aquarium, something went wrong as I was reassembling the cannister filter and water began to pool on the wooden floor. I jumped up a little too quickly to get towels and tore the electric plug for the large room-heater out of the wall, breaking it. It's still February, and we're without our main heater (aside from the A/C unit built into the ceiling). The silver lining on this storm cloud: the weather's suddenly gotten unusually warm.

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

—Douglas Adams
