New music, new year, and a few family photos.

Praise Janus, the god of beginnings! It is finally the friggin' new year. Halleluia. The end of 2005 sort of sucked, what with tending to my mom and overloading elsewhere. And making no headway on my dissertation. Not to mention Katrina, the tsunami, and continued, totally avoidable bloodshed in Iraq, thanks to the most vile and deplorable president in the world, ever. You get the picture.




So here we are, in 2006. Christmas was nice (the niece in orange agrees), New Years sparkled (see right), and Pablo and Rickie continue to bathe (see below) and adore each other adorably.

And finally, I have a whole new list of shows to see, which have been added to the sidebar.
