Finally caught up (kinda) from the trip to Chicago; flying American must be a pretty good approximation of flying in a military transport: no food, no entertainment.
Luckily, Chicago welcomed us with open arms. It was a bit warm for our Northwest constitutions (mid-80s in April?!), but my sister's wedding was beautiful, my sister was beautiful, Piper was beautiful, the heavens opened and angels... okay,...

Every now and again I think about meeting new people, then I find the idea rubbish and wander off.

I should call you soon if i can be outta work for like a hot minute!
i just realized that I signed up to do portfolio reviews for an AIGA event the same day as my sister's wedding. This wouldn't have been a problem, since i'd be done with reviews by noon and my sister's wedding is at 6pm, if the wedding wasn't in Chicago. Damn. These events are the best ways to snag someone hot out of college for coffee-fetching......

I don't know how I missed noticing you till now. You'r name is fucking cool. The odl Gidzilla carton was great. Especially the "Godzilla Syndrome" aspect (How he sometimes is big nough to stand on the bottom of the ocean and be above water and and then immediately shrink and be proportional to the monster he's fighting)
No fire-quenching heroics this week; just a visit from a lovely London-based friend and her boy. Also, more client idiocy: why do they pay me so much just so they can fuck my shit up with their ill-advised, uninformed suggestions?

That site is pretty cool. I like the daily poker hand question.
So I'm clicking away in my upstairs office as usual yesterday afternoon, when i notice a really loud crackling sound coming from my next-door neighbor's backyard. When I look out my window, i see a bunch of smoke coming from behind her house. My first thought was, "What the hell is Pat cooking?" (Pat being my 70-year-old grandmotherly neighbor, if your grandmother could swear like...

Congrats on the Royal flush. Wish me luck at the tourny at Goldies.

Innit, though? 
New Weding Present music!. David Gedge is one of my favorite musicians and all-around great guys of the past 15 years, so color me giddy. I'm just bummed that I missed him when he in town recording it.

Oooooh, sounds like some fun design work!
mrdeity:
Very cool!
okay, last chance: anyone want an '88 VW GTI 16v? It's cheap, and if no one wants it, it's being donated to some orphanage in Appalachia or a Little League team or something.

Is NOMS still chugging away up there?
I spent many a day bumming about QA... a nice little neighborhood. I used to ride my bike up 3rd on the North side, then go down QA Ave on the South side, then back up and over again...
...the things we do.

Why are you stuck home?
punt:
that hat I bought is great. There was another one in brown I almost bought just because I was scared I'd never see one like it ever again. A backup would be killer....I figure someone will steal it eventually.
Spent the morning chasing pigeons on Westlake Plaza. Life is good.
navin:
i can certainly think of worse ways to spend a morning...
any interest in catching the clay wheels saturday night?
