| BIG NEWS!!! ...Shoshanna's website is a mess. Boo. Hiss. Additionally, she now has a very lovely Mac, and her site software only works on PC. This makes updating the dot com (or dot net, as it were) challenging. As such, she is slowly but surely learning how to use iWeb and the site will relaunch much more prettily in the near [we hope] future. In the meanwhile, please take a look around here for all sorts of moderately-up-to-date fun. Do try not to judge. |
