If you had told 18 year old me that at 50+ I'd be a scientist, writing presentations on extracting information from the scientific literature and arguing about conceptualizations of cognitive processes, I'd have looked at you like you were putting me under a curse. If you'd told me I'd *enjoy* it and find it deeply rewarding, I'd have dismissed you as the ravings of too much late-night pizza. 😂 And yet, here we are. #academics
