*or once was, or may well be in one of many possible futures. I’ve started blogging over at James B Hunt’s longtime site, http://www.tempeart.com (though he hasn’t moved the blog to that url yet so it’s currently at http://tempeart.wordpress.com until it’s up and running.

Tempe is where the art is*

beneath the extended para-para-parasol!
By Brandon Adamson
So I’m almost all moved in to my new place. Though all I have is a bed, a television, and that orange end table that Brandie gave me, nearly 6 years ago. I do love that table so, but have never been able to find matching ones. It’s weird how over the years, every person […]
