The server ate it

I’m sorry to be a bit late posting today, but the server is acting up. I guess it’s the server. Everything is very, very, very slow. I feel lucky to be here at all. I thought I might have to punt for the first time since I started the blog format back in January. (Has it been that long?) In fact, we’re not out of the woods yet. As I write this, I’ve yet to upload it. I hope you’re reading this!

In the past, when it was all so new, I played around with image-editing software, as Arlo is doing this week. It was a lot of fun, and I managed to achieve some good results. However, the bad news is that, as with many tools, skill also is necessary to get the most out programs like Photoshop.
