Retreat

January 31, 2005

I know. I’ve been quiet.

This may be the most silent I’ve ever been and I’m not sure why. Maybe it’s because I’ve been designing and printing like a fiend. Maybe it’s because I’m spending hours every week with other like minds and hearts in pursuit of changing the lives of teenagers. Maybe it’s because some nights I just would rather watch TV or eat a slice of pie with my boyfriend than spend more time in front of a computer screen. Maybe it’s all of this and more.

I’d been dreading this kind of post. I don’t like apologizing for anything I do or don’t write on my web site, because, well, it’s my web site. And the moment I start to think too much about the audience, it stops being fun.

But the truth is, something has got to change — something is going to change. I don’t know if it’s going to be a simple redesign or if it’s going to be a major overhaul. I don’t know when I’m going to have the time or energy to do it. And I don’t know if you’re going to like it, hate it or even want to keep visiting when it’s done.

I just know that I’m going to try my darnedest to stay true to my original goal when I created this little space on the web. I’m going to play, again.

 


  • I'm Christine, and this is a slice of my life—a sweet, rich, wildly indulgent slice that would taste really good with a scoop of Breyers vanilla bean ice cream. Read more >>


  • I run a darling, friendly, little graphic design studio.
    I look on the bright side.
    I take photos. Lots of photos.
    I wish on stars and on websites.


  • I built my first web site 7 years ago and got 15 seconds of fame. (It changed my life.)
    I launched, then relaunched, an online magazine.
    I admitted to several embarrassing crushes.
    I consumed more bacon than any human should and lived to tell the tales.
