And my Christmas cards this year are coming from the printer soon — with a new Holiday photo series to be uploaded to my portfolio along with those. Plus, of course, new desktop wallpapers for you!

Just saying.

Dear Mr. Flowerseed,

Although I have no idea who you are, I’d like to thank you for the Thanksgiving gift. It is not a substitute for a real Thanksgiving dinner, but it is a start ;)

I had been thinking about getting a 1Password license anyway since my test period was just up and hereby recommend that application.
