The unexamined life


is not worth living, according to Rachel. That is, unexamined by me. Everything she does is preceded by "washdees" (watch this), repeated louder and louder until I not only turn towards her, but say "Yes, Rachel, I'm watching" She has, for example, repeated "washdees" seventeen times in the last five minutes that I've been typing - every time she wants to add one more dot to the picture she's drawing. She needs to reread her philosophy - this isn't what Socrates meant.
