I have created another blog...

Today has sucked ass, but...
VCH congratulated me (and my staff [finally]) on how amazingly Lyceum has done this year, and that it’s the best he’s ever seen it.
I added at LEAST half a dozen juicy details to my mental file on my favorite person ever.

Watching Frida.
hystericdiscourses:
I forgot how much of an asshole Diego Rivera was.
His paintings are fantastic, though.
