		<title>A doodle of a kitty cat</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So far this year, I haven&#8217;t been blogging much at all, so today I decided I&#8217;m going to start sharing my taste for &#8220;fine&#8221; art with the internet. At the very least I&#8217;ll be posting all of the random crap I doodle to fill the gaps between witty outbursts or technical diatribes. &#160;]]></description>
