*Taps on the mic*
There are things I like about Tumblr, and things I don’t like about Tumblr. While there is some original content to be found there, Tumblr seems to be the place for incredibly hip young people to repost (“reblog,” in Tumblr parlance) the words and images of others. At 30, I find that I’m just a bit too old to be both incredibly hip and young, and, thus, I’ve once again opened the door to this: my long lost home on the web. (A hint from another former Tumblrite, Amador Square, provided the final nudge I needed to look for the key.)
So here I am. How I’ll set up housekeeping again remains to be seen, but I’m here, and, just maybe, I’ll stay a while.
The holidays have come to my house. Have they come yet to yours?

What a beautiful tree! (or perhaps tenenbaum is more appropriate for your haus?
The holidays have come to our house as well. I was never cool enough for tumblr, so I’m happy that you’ve come back here to roost. Wilkommen!
Thank you! I couldn’t be happier with the tree. I haven’t had a real one since the late ’90s after our dog, Lady, destroyed the bottom two thirds of that one during a fit of separation anxiety. (The tree itself was fine, but she had taken off all the ornaments — apparently, one by one — and smashed them on the floor. You can’t imagine the mess we found when we came home, but, amazingly, Lady didn’t have a cut on her.)
Anyway, this is a Canaan Fir that we cut at Timbuk; it’s perfectly shaped and about eight and a half feet tall. I also found the most awesome cards at the Kussmaul Gallery the other day. For the first time in a couple of years, I’m really getting into the holidays again!
