something I am grateful for today

A truly vacationy vacation day yesterday: no prior commitments, no pressing tasks, I simply drew when I felt like it, ate when I felt like it, and napped when I felt like it.

I'm hoping that, once I retire, this will be my life.

a small year-end wrap-up

The year has wound down far enough that I may now safely announce: this is 2011's Song of the Year, by the Band of the Year.
