Today’s dispatch has three, count them THREE, pictures of me. I’m labeled in two of them. I learned from the other one that my hat makes my head look really pointy. It’s super warm, though, so fashion be damned.

Also, I had to use up the caption on picture #7 explaining science, not defending my fashion choices, so I would just like to say here that the fanny pack is the best way to hold my notebook while I’m working on the ice or on deck – when someone says something funny, I can pull off my giant warm mitten and grab my notebook out of the pack.
