Life, Happening

by on February 1, 2012

It’s Wednesday afternoon and I haven’t posted once this week. I’ve been busy with work as my colleagues at my new client (have I introduced you to AboutOne yet? Awesome people.

Emerging

by on January 13, 2012

I haven’t had that in a long time, that welling up of despair. I struggled through the day, had a better day on Wednesday, and then Thursday was flattened by a stomach issue that may or may not have involved a sandwich I ate from a convenience store. I’m still in some pain today but [...]
