Seeing through the swirl

The human condition, I suppose, is to be capable of deep, thorough, feel-it-ache-in-your-bones love, and to be mortal anyway, and know you’ll someday lose it, one way or the other. It is, inevitably, not fair. My partner/husband/best friend/co-con…

Things that probably deserve their own post

Yes, each of these probably merits a post of its own, and my blog has been sorely neglected of late. But since I’m powering through my to do list, I’m giving them each a bullet point, and I may choose

Karsten is a face of Oktoberfest!

John H over at Salem’s Lots has some pics from Oktoberfest up, and one of them is of Karsten in his “opium den,” a.k.a. the art studio in the basement. You can’t tell it’s an art studio from the picture
