  • IWSG December 2020

    So… This has been a year, hasn’t it? Perhaps our apocalypse outfits weren’t awesome cool badassery with knives and guns and bandoliers with military issue pants and boots scrounged from an army surplus store, but to be fair, we weren’t fighting zombies or aliens or killer robots either.

  • IWSG September 2020

    I’ve referred to a spot in the basement as my own personal Area 51, filled with boxes and bags of projects that were started and never completed (hence, UFO – UnFinished Objects). I didn’t think it was a big area, maybe three feet by four feet by four feet. It wasn’t a slap’n’dash pile of…
