When I went with my family to New York I had to see the American Museum of Natural History again. I was where over a decade ago and it had a large role in developing my love of biology, and later, anthropology. A lot of the classic exhibits haven’t changed,… Read more“American Museum of Natural History”

*Insert Some Witty Phrase Using the Word "Windows"*
It took me a day to get Windows 7 back on my computer. There were obstacles every step of the way. I decided to wipe my Windows partition and start from scratch. My Windows 7 update disc would not validate a fresh install: even though there is no technical reason,… Read more“*Insert Some Witty Phrase Using the Word "Windows"*”
With Dustin’s help I installed Windows 7 on my external hard drive. I had to reformat, but my data is actually on a different partition than the OS, so forethought ftw. It booted up fine. I ran the stats program and it brought the whole computer down. *sigh*. I’ve restarted… Read more“”

Right now, between writing words here, I’m scanning my pencil drawings from 2001-2002. I’ll share the ones I… Read more“Just Chill, to the Next Episode”
Awesome Things
My friend Melissa has started a small side enterprise crafting miniature foods. She just started recently but you wouldn’t know it looking at her work. I had to get a typical Peruvian food immortominiaturized and I chose maÃz morado, the purple corn that is used to make the lunchtime drink… Read more“Awesome Things”
I Present: The Epic of Karie
This is my 2009 24 Hour Comic, The Epic of Karie. Unlike previous years I went with a previously-created story, one from my earliest comic-making days (around 1998-2000). Go ahead and start with the introduction, which is a blog post in itself!
