No, I haven't abandoned DA. 2008 was just a very busy year for me, and it was all mostly good. I got a good job last Summer that's only a five minute drive away. I make gourmet goat cheese and I really like it; before anyone asks, I don't have to milk goats, we buy our milk from local goat farmers. In the months since I got this job, I've made myself quite a valuable member of the crew, so I feel reasonably secure financialy. Besides the much needed and appreciated cash, the job gives me lots of time to think alone, which is quite nice.

As you probably noticed, I've added a few new pieces to my gallery here, something I've been meaning to do for quite some time. Hopefully I'll be able to post new pieces and journal entries more regularly this year.
