Today has been a battle. I'm making some great headway on a project that I've never been able to spend much time on. Everything is clicking and lining up. But, it hasn't been easy. I had to block the light out just to see what I was doing and then my keyboard broke on me! The control key just popped off. Boink! Just got this keyboard, so I was bummed cause I'll have to ship it back for a replacement - it has a really funky mounting system and the bracket latch busted. So, now I'm behind the magic curtain and operating on a backup keyboard. C'mon mouse, hang in there for me - your all I got left. Back to work...
Can't you see I'm trying to work here! I felt like I was revisiting my childhood today by constructing a fort. I don't have window blinds for my office area yet, so sunlight is a big problem when trying to see the monitors. I'm designing a particulary dark website with subtle detailing and I just couldn't see a damn thing. So, I built a wall to block out the light. The final result was just too funny not to share. You can't say I'm not dedicated to my craft - I mean just look at the lengths I'm willing to go to in order to get some work done.

Some great quotes from Pepper Brooks in the film Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story - 2004
Pepperisms: I feel shocked. He will not be able to see very well, cotton. F-ing a Cotton, F-ING *A*. I sure do like pumpkins Cotton. It's a bold strategy, let's see if it works out for them. Pepper needs new shorts! Usually you have to pay double for that kind of action, Cotton. I talked to White earlier today and he said his team really wants to win this one, Cotton.

Got some new wearables from Threadless. They have a sale going on right now - 10 bucks for any shirt in the store.
  
I'm listed on XICARUS as a designer of the month. I can't decipher any of the text, but I'm among seriously good company with Joshua Davis and Robert Lindstrom. Thanks so much for the listing, I'm honored.

Had the day off today. Worked on the F:E:D Newsletter, cleaned up around the loft and watched a flick. Stopped by work for just a bit and got my laptop to turn back on after a month and half of no love. All of a sudden it decided, oh yeah I can startup. It popped an error after login saying my date and time was set to something prior to 2001 and that was not going to fly. So, I go in to set it to the correct time and saw that my Powerbook thought it was December 1969! How that happened - I have no idea. Back to good now.

Ah, the 4th of July. Who is the person that tosses and turns at night thinking, "how can I bring more people into my store over this holiday weekend" - and then comes up with a 30 foot electric blue ape wearing bermuda swimtrunks... holding a matress over his head? I want to be that person!! I salute you. (No, I did not go into the store)
 You can't argue that this Hair Hut tucked away in the forest isn't a bizzare sight. It looks to be just big enough for one customer at a time, but luckily the sign out front clearly states that whether your a man or woman your welcome at the Hair Hut.
