Kali's black and gold graduation announcement.

Guess who is graduating? Kali! Congrats on your Fort Hays State University nursing degree. Woot! You have lots of practice and now a piece of paper to back it up. You will be a great nurse wherever your skills take you. . . .

Bringing a little calligraphy to Star Wars day.

Happy Star Wars Day! Not much happened around this place today to celebrate, but I did manage to script some words and poorly draw Yoda. (Yeah, that's the green blob at the bottom and his lightsaber wielding across the top — in case you were confused.) I will admit, I am not going to turn pro in Star-Wars-character sketching any time soon, but the letters turned out all right. . . .

It's a new month, which means a new background image for my computer.

Each month, I redesign my tech wallpaper, creating custom images that keep me organized. As you see above, I dedicate chunks of my screen to certain tasks: folders, files, PDFs, in progress, pretties and calendar. My desktop icons automatically snap to a grid, so all I have to do is drag and drop documents to their assigned spot. It makes me organize myself so I don't end up with a desktop littered with icons. . . .
