Ah heck.
This Arts profile is going to be the death of me. For realz.
I don’t know why it’s so difficult, it’s just ONE profile. I feel like I’m pulling teeth but…instead of teeth…it’s words.
And it’s 1:41 and I’m coming down from my caffeine-high and getting cranky because I’m at a loss. Maybe I’ll just get back to it in the morning....
Every Tuesday.

I had a dream last night
That went along the lines of:
I was wearing this really awesome Victorian-inspired dress but with leather and lace and goggles. It was all very steampunk, because I had an aircraft-type machine that I used to fly around and maybe even time travel.
So anyways, in my dream, I was running from these creatures that were like a cross between one of those old cast-iron stoves and, well, Iron Man. They...
