And three months later...back to this again.

Been a busy summer full of surprises from a wonderful Pride and after to a lovely visit to CT with sweet summer breezes and beautiful boys. Work life has been less fun with time having dulled the shine of the new job. But it is a jog and for that I am still grateful.

Recently a I passed along a discount offer on Levi's jeans via email, a bit of spam that got a few curious responses:

From Howard Junker, Editor, ZYZZYVA:

they probably have a matching gifts program so be sure to remember us, hopefully before you write your will.

The do, Howard, and I will...

From a friend:

Hello, how are you? Are you still with Sharper Image? Thinking of you.

Guess he missed the part of the email that said the Levi's offer was from my new job and the news that Sharper Image is no more.

Been a quiet writing summer for me in part from a lot of stress with the new job, a longer walk in and an earlier start ending my mornings at Tully's and most recently working weekends and long days on an extremely frustrating project. I have been again doing Dodie's workshop as well with some work coming out of the experiments and a couple of pieces getting some work there but have also been thwarted a bit by the schedule disorder and somehow managing not get slotted in despite asking. And so this is a small pleasure to return to. Oh, yes a new Bent Boy Book out of to few and out to more soon (pending some more printing, assembly and mailing).

Some seasonal picture updates coming soon.
