You Show Me Yours…
My class at Art Students League did not fill, so it is cancelled. It’s disappointing, and also leaves me with less income during a slow time of year. Fortunately, I have temp work at the University of Denver Bookstore to tide me over. I’ve been helping out during their beginning-of-quarter rushes for about three years now, and…

Going Mobile
I just downloaded the Blogger app and wanted to see if I can post from my phone. I’ve been spending a lot of time on the train lately, and the ability to update my Twitter accounts and check email has turned wasted (and annoying) time in my car into fairly productive time on the way…

“All of my friends were there… Not just my friends, But their best friends, too! All of my friends were there, Too stand, and stare” -The Kinks, “All of My Friends Were There” There’s a fine line between a dream and a nightmare, isn’t there? In a dream, you are naked, and with a beautiful…

Everything is very Christmas-y here in the Rockies. We have 8″ of snow on the ground, and more coming down in big fluffy flakes. The other side of the lake can be made out though, and the sun is trying to break through. We look like a big holiday card here, actually sort of a…
