Side Projects and Such
One of the things I’ve been doing this year is getting back into art, since it was my first love (after paleontology, which at 7 I was convinced was my life’s calling–I mean, DINOSAURS, man!).

Time Enough
I am counting the days until June 30. That’s the day I graduate from grad school with a shiny MFA and begin the rest of my life.
