I’ll have the final installment of the Hotel Diaries up for you later today (I’m a little behind since I–unfortunately–went to see the midnight premiere of “The Green Hornet”), but for now, I wanted to wish you a Happy Delurking Day 2011! You know what Delurking Day is, right? If you read my blog but never show yourself via comment (okay, and even if you do!), today is your day to shine! Leave a comment to say hello!

Just Because You’re You.
Did you know that I make notecards, announcements, and invitations? I’ve done it for years, ever since my life became way too busy for scrapbooking.
