On the eve of my 30th birthday I find myself learning lessons I should have learned a long time ago.
I have a new rule. My new rule is that I do not work for friends. Working for friends is like lending your brother money or discussing politics with your extremely conservative best friend; you […]
Sharpcast announced a sister product to its already existing photos software. The new files product will do everything Sharpcast Photos does — sync across the web/PC/Mac/Mobile device and automatically back it all up.The product was nicknamed Hummingbird this weekend in a fit of creativity by Sharpcast CEO, Gibu Thomas.

Icon-liciousSharpcast Desktop Organizer gets an icon make-over.
Over the past year and change I have been refining my icon creation skills. Making icons is deceptively difficult and time consuming, but there is something rewarding about drawing on a pixel level only to zoom out and see that the whole creation has depth and complexity.

This past year has been a tumultuous one for me. In my struggle to get down to the heart of who I am, I have sought to become more independent. This show of independence most recently manifested itself in the form of a four day trip to the Appalachians where I enrolled myself in an […]

Only then, do I seem able to extinguish the beguiling desire to keep that […]

She always gets her dream job and seems to continually find meaning and fulfillment in the things that she does. She is smart, charismatic, […]
The Road to OpportunityA hale and hearty tale of the bountiful journey west.
My husband and I both arrived at the decision to move out west as if by simultaneous revelation. After a brief interment in upstate New York, where the winter leaves much to be desired, we were both desperate to get back to some place warm and […]
Okay, so, I was swallowed whole by a rare and particularly vicious species of woman-eating monster (right after the dog ate my homework). I swear.
Actually, I really was. About 3 months ago the new version of Everquest was released and my life just hasn’t been the same since. I abandoned my blog, put my freelance […]
It’s a wide, wide chasm — I assure you.
I consider myself a scientist. In college however, I took many art classes. I drew lots and lots of naked people, which was exciting and liberating — for them. For me it was about blushing in the light of ignominy while the professor critiqued the lack of […]
What’s the big deal? We are all naked underneath our clothes….
I went to Queens last night for an actual BBQ. There was an actual backyard, with an actual grill and we were eating actual tomatos from an actual garden. You are probably saying to yourself “big deal, who cares?”, but when you live in Manhattan […]
