Blogger self-help therapy pamphlet

It had to come (seen @ Eye of the Goof). Blogging depresses me roughly to the same extent and for the same reasons that opening my mouth does, but its pros still outweigh its cons, not least because it has helped me over the past couple of years to learn to read and write Spanish and Catalan. The Spanish would probably have happened anyway because of its social dominance in Barcelona, but I’m glad about the Catalan, partly because I was completely unenthused by the notion of dutifully attending Catalan classes.
