Well, it’s Halloween and as usual I carved a pumpkin. I am not one for happy smiling pumpkins, I am all about the scary ones. I think this year’s is the best yet and I am quite happy with how the mouth came out. Last year I did a similar mouth, but it was all [...]

This is a photo. I took it. This song is probably not for everyone, but I like it and I think it goes well with the Halloween weekend. It builds up nicely and gets quite pleasant at around 2:30 in.

My mother and I drove up to NYC today to see my sister for the weekend. I am so used to being the one that drives, so it was a pleasant change to be the passenger and enjoy the view out the window (even if [...]
Strangely I seem to be able to keep up with this blog daily better than I can weekly. Strange. Here are a few haikus about what’s on my mind.
