7:33pm thoughts from the office… 15 May, 2007

It’s 7:33pm and I am still at work. The sea of html code in front of me is blurring together, so I thought I’d take a moment to eat a snack, drink some water, and pull something out of the back of my brain to blog about (only because I promised myself I’d actually update [...]

beauty and the beast 3 May, 2007

Ooookay. That obviously helped me.
2 – I just received this message addressed to an artist I work with. I won’t tell you which one, because the story just goes downhill.
