Those Were the Days My Friend
For quite a few years now, after January 1st I have considered myself the age I am going to turn in that year. So, if asked my age between January 1 and April 19, I have to think really hard about the answer. Actually, I always have to think hard about how old I am, [...]

My Wild and Crazy Saturday Night
As much as I complain about the online photoshop class taking up more time than a conventional class, I am learning some cool stuff. We’re just now getting to the really fun part – photo retouching. So, here is how I spent my wild and crazy Saturday night:

This is why I was especially surprised this afternoon when I got out a purse [...]
