Dear deviant friends who still remember me fondly, or who at least don't want to kick me in the groin, or who might want to kick me in the groin, but only in a friendly way,
Like all of us, I have so little time to spend online these days that I can't possibly hope to keep up with all the interesting things I'd like to keep up with. My art projects have suffered from my lack of time, and my presence on dA has become more of a memory than an ongoing concern.
Friends send me funny links and interesting pictures. My RSS feeds would take hours to go through, if I could spend that much time at them every day. Toss in my regular email input, some
I've been on Facebook for a couple of years now...almost since the very beginning. I pretty much hated it from the start...being a solitary old curmudgeon means you try to avoid new social entanglements, not seek them out...and FB was just a wee bit too personal for me.
I have to admit that I have finally given it a fair shake and I'm hooked. Maybe it's because of the vast majority of formerly computer-illiterate folks from my past who are finally catching on to the use of the PC in their real lives, or maybe it's just because I can spend only a few minutes at a time online and FB makes it count.

It takes me much longer than a normally-enabled person to accomplish things, but to me that just makes each project more precious. As a good example, I bought some redwood lumber and built an 8-foot by 4-foot raised garden bed for my backyard and
Oh, my. How very nice.
It looks good, it feels good.
I'm really loving the new styles and features on the profiles page, and some of the other nice touches that have been added to the look-and-feel of dA lately. I only regret that I do not have time to keep my own pages updated. Cripes, here it is February and I just now changed all the chrissmassy caboosta out of my own account.
It's not that I've been idle, no, no, not at all, dear ones.
My fans (yes, Mom, I know you're out there somewhere)...OK...maybe fan is more accurate.... knows that making a daily trip to the mailbox is about as much physical activity as I can tolerate. My nervous system has been dete
