ok. so, I've decided that I'm not going to be updating this or any livejournals until I get my website up and my general creative output under control. I'll still be here, reading my friends list, commenting, etc. (so, really, it isn't any different from the way this has been going for the last few months) and when I have everything up and working ( Read more... ) -
capitalism run rampant!
