As some folks may notice, I've chosen a new template for this blog - one that includes comments. Frankly, I've gotten a teency bit addicted to comments on my other online homes (my Flickr site, my new Get Crafty site, and the site where I keep my drawings). Comments can cut both ways ("hey, how come nobody gives a rip what I'm doing?"), but even if it's only once in a blue moon, having someone in Portugal or Ohio or wherever find you and respond to what you've said or drawn or made is still disproportionately exhilarating to me. So I'll try it for a while. Needless to say, feel free to comment.
