So it came to no surprise when I let out an audible gasp to see this picture: Designed by Dutch artist Job Koelewijn, the Infinity Bookcase symbolizes the infinite power of books and learning. I want to move all the furniture out of our condo so […]
(I wrote a whooping 7 posts last night – 6 public and 1 private – but timed most of them so that they will be published at regular intervals throughout the next day. However, I’ve discovered that this method does not seem to notify Google Reader. So until I figure out what the problem is, […]
