Super Star

So - I am a super famous photographer.  I bet that comes as a surprise to everyone.  BUT - I have had a photo that I personally took published in an online photo guide to some of Chicago’s cool (I guess, so not from Chicago) places.
You can tell I am a superstar because I have [...]

Sometimes I have thoughts

And sometimes, I develop them into theories - and then, people throw things at me.

Bettye Muller is fast becoming my favorite designer for spring. *le sigh* If someone wanted to send me [...]

All weeks should be three day weeks

This week, I am celebrating one of the most significant events to happen in the last half-century: my birth. I have a friend who takes the month before & the month after to celebrate her birth month, but I only need the week prior, and then the rest of the month to celebrate mine.
