Did You Miss Me? (AKA The Triumphant Return of Kitsnaps!) Seriously, it’s taken two full months to get the desktop computer set up, and I had a couple hundred photos to go through (which is kind of a lame number, since I haven’t used the camera at all this month :p), but I am finally back with Kitsnaps, and hope to return to daily posting.
