I'm privileged, because I have a lot of freedom. I want to use it to make as warm and normal a life as I can for our daughters.

I don't know anyone who was never a geek, really, when they look at their own lives. I think that from the outside looking in, you think that you weren't necessarily a tragic geek, but yes, you did lean in that direction.
