New look for the website, same Ariel photos though, because... well... I just love her! I'm just relaxing listening to an old playlist I put together a few years ago.

I selected the wrong address filler on 4 of my Christmas parcels from Walmart to an address that doesn't exist and somehow one of them was delivered and received. It's an apartment just down the street so I ran down to double check that it wasn't in the lobby but it was no where to … Continue reading A Calm Over the Christmas Season
