no. i'm not back. i just decided to make an official "goodbye". i have always been upset when people i have become attached to online just disappear. and i didn't mean to be one of those people, even though i am not sure it was noticed. if so, i'm sorry.

i am still in San Antonio, same job, same little apartment, same wandering and snapping of houses (now with an iPhone rather than my beloved iPod - which is now in the hands of Betsy), same struggles with enough time for studio work. same lonely alien. life seems a bit of a struggle and i question some of my decisions of the last year and a half. but as always ... onward.

this public journal will now be closed. i still moan and ramble and make pictures in my locked journal, the same old livejournal - and i am on facebook and instagram (minimally) - feel free to ask. i would probably love to see you there if i don't already. my etsy shop is closed and my website has been hacked again. when i am feeling more artful, i will likely resurface to the public. it will be announced. thank you. always.
