Ode to J.G. Ballard

To honor J.G Ballard, I have mimicked his short story, "The Index." Below you will find the story of my life (more or less) in the form of an index.

I, of course, omitted any pagination. That would be silly, dear reader. I’m not writing a book here. This is a blog. I’m still new at this blog thing, so, if I find out later that pagination does exist in the blogosphere, I’ll need to add the numbers later. Hmmm ... I hope that doesn’t happen though. I’m way too lazy to go back and change this post. Enough babbling, just indexing.
