the wall

Here’s a pretty terrible picture of what I’ve spent all day (and about $100) doing. I promise, it looks a lot cooler on my wall than it does in this picture – or at least I think it does. The two doors you see are my room door and my closet door respectively, to give [...]

D.O. in D-town

First, sorry for what I assume is the huge text… this isn’t my computer, more on that as you read on.

Some things lose value with time, some things quicker than others, while other things gain value with time.
