In an effort to sort out what I should and should not post here I've decided to realign the site and separate some of the posts.

News about Erin and I and the girls will be moved to...
blog.erewhon.us

...and my craziness will be posted here...
blog.deadsmiley.com

Both sites are now active and anyone interested should be going there for new updates.

I went to an art supply store today and purchased a brand new set of artist's pencils...


Yes, that is my little darling Sophia...




I loved drawing dragons when I was in high school. It felt great to get back to that.

...or not...

...I guess it would be a matter of opinion.

He made it official today. John Edwards dropped out of the race for President of the United States. I'm saddened that it has come down to this. It's unfortunate that more people couldn't hear his message. It was troublesome to watch how the major news outlets treated it as if there were only two candidates running for the Democratic nomination. Edwards got very little screen time and it scares me to think that Obama and Clinton seem to be campaigning to make history rather than make changes. I will support them, but only because I cannot stomach the thought of another Republican in the White House. I swear to God that I'll pick up the family and move to Canada if Mitt Romney or Mike Huckabee get elected. Those dudes scare the shit out of me.

Anyway...Even though Edwards is no longer running, his message still holds weight and merit. We must fight to fix the poverty problem in this country. We must fight to save the ever shrinking middle-class. If we can work on those issues there are others that will simply resolve themselves.

I'll get down off my soapbox now...but down be too relieved...I'll be back on it again soon!
