Back on a couple of my previous blogs (2001, 2003) I shared 100 things about me posts. Somewhere I actually have that list written out on paper. I’ve often thought how I’d like to share a list like that here on this blog, but I also know 100 items is a lot of things to expect a reader to go through. So, I’ve decided to break it up into bite sized posts, 20 items at a time. Read the complete 100 Things About Me in parts I, II, III, IV, and V

YOU DON’T LIKE CHOCOLATE? Reevaluating everything at this point. ;)
This is going to gross you out… my mom had a boyfriend whose job it was to make styrofoam, so he always used to bring back samples of weird styrofoam in bizarro shapes from his tests.
Unrelated to this post, but I just watched your art-o-mat video, and I’m super inspired now. That’s on my big to-do list before my 34th birthday. I love your little tiny canvases and how you packaged everything.
I think this is among the most significant information for me.
