Desert Road Trip. Anybody interested in going?

Hmmm, looks like I update once a month. Sorry about that. I’m feeling kinda guilty, so here’s something for you to check out. Thanks to @BeeDazzle for sending me in this direction. Joshua Tree, here I come. Wonder if they have room for Mr. Happy Poo?

In Record Time

I recently read “After Dark” and “Norwegian Wood” by Haruki Murakami. Both books were excellent with unexpected endings. Quick reads too, my kind of book. But I think I just broke my record time with “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” by Stieg Larsson. 644 pages in 3 nights. At first I was a bit [...]

OMG, F’ing Amazing!

Hello World! Wow, didn’t realize it’s been that long since I posted anything. Been kinda busy. Working freelance, that actually pays, helping out with a couple non-profits and working on my online portfolio. Of course, the later is the most difficult, I keep wanting to change the layout or pics that I’m using. That’s why [...]

My Next Project?

Great, thanks Ken, another song stuck in my head. New project? Most likely not, unless someone wants to animate my creations. But it is kawaii! Enjoy! Thanks to Boing Boing for the initial post that got my attention and to U900 for their work. You can see more videos on U900′s myspace.

Introducing Melrose

OMG, I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to finally introduce Melrose. Everybody, this is Melrose. She was born on October 4th, 2009. One of 7 pups, but sadly 2 passed away. I first met her on December 7th after a long flight from Arkansas. Thanks to my friend Cindy who gave me pick [...]

A New Mini Obsession

It’s a bad habit of mine to get obsessed with things. Then go out and need to acquire a small quantity. Lately it’s lunch boxes or bags. I’ve got a couple and, when I was working, used to swap them out on a regular basis. My favorite, that I used quite often, was my small [...]

Hello, Again.

Wow, it’s been so long since I’ve posted anything up here. I’ve been busy, but I’m still FunEmployed. Let’s see, where did I leave off last time… Hmm, last I wrote about was The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. That was about 3 weeks ago. I applied for an online editor position, did a trial [...]

Chiaki!! Time Waits for No One

I love The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. It is one of my favorites. But then again I’m a sucker for the whole boy/girl high school friendship stories. Hana Yori Dango is another favorite. I don’t know what it is? Is it the innocence, the true, non-gender friendship, before the falling in love? Who knows [...]

A couple “Bangs”

Now that I’m home, I’ve signed up for a couple classes. I know, spending money is not what I’m supposed to do. But I finally have time and I decided to take advantage of it. So along with the Letterpress class, I also signed up for a “Re-Invent Yourself” seminar and a Web Design/Build course. [...]

Futura Lite 30 & 18

Last Wednesday, I finally started my letterpress class at the Armory Center for the Arts. I’ve been wanting to take this class for years, but always used the same excuse, “don’t have time because of work”. Of course, I can’t use that excuse any longer. I should have used the “I’m unemployed and broke” excuse. [...]
