  • First we mourn, then we fight

    Following today’s attack on the Charlie Hebdo offices in Paris, street artist “Banksy” allegedly shared this image on Instagram. I wholeheartedly agree with its message:

    RIP

  • I feel pretty, oh so pretty…

    Over the holiday weekend, I updated the designs for this website, my Twitter feed and my Tumblr. Doing so always takes a great deal of time and effort, but I find these template alterations satisfy the new-year-clean-slate urge I get every January.

    Hope you like the changes. As always, comments and suggestions are welcome.
