i figure now is as good a time as any to update this thing...

well, it took over a year (though compared to the two years it took to reach 1k, its not that bad) but i finally reached 2k page views! i took a screen shot but quite frankly im not net-savvy enough to post pictures in a journal like this...

so i have been updating a bit more of late... i stopped for a while due to fears of the rights i was losing to images i posted here due to the agreement. well, i finally got over that since i had been watching here for so long and i see other professionals posting their work here frequently.

anyway, this is a fairly good (slightly early) birthday present from those of you who have decided over the years (almost 6) to watch me and my work progress here. i turn 23 on Thursday, and have taken some pretty substantial steps in my life of late. I'm back in school after leaving brooks, I'm working two jobs (though only one is really steady) and I'm engaged to be married a year from Friday. i have been working to get my Fiance's company up and taking off, but like so many in the US my financial situation is less than optimal, but at least i am working steadily and somehow managing to keep my head above water!

anyway, enough of my ramblings! thank you all so much for your continued support of me and my work, and i hope to keep producing for a long time to come!
