Get a new face!

Get a new face!

…just something I say to myself every morning when I look in the mirror…sigh… Oh! I’m on. Well, hello! Let’s talk faces. Sir gets a big kick out of seeing the new little “monster face” that people get when they comment here on Polka Dot Suitcase. I keep waiting for the little tiny computer artists who live inside the network wires to run out of new combinations. There’s the square face, the triangle face, glasses, one … Read entire article »
