Hello again all! I can't believe it's been a month since my last post. I've been incredibly busy lately. Let's see...well, probably the most time consuming thing is the CD project I've been working on. I collected a 4 CD set of music that sounds particularly good through headphones, and designed and created all of the inlays and a booklet for it. I even had it shrink wrapped to make it look as retail as possible. I'm giving it to my girlfriend for her birthday next week, along with a set of studio headphones to listen to it with. I really hope she likes it. Maybe I'll post some images of it after I give it to her.
My friend Ethan and I also layed out a single issue comic that I need to get to work on. We are alternating pages (don't worry, the book is designed for that to work), so I'm totally on my own for my part. I think I'll get to this next.
Oh, and perhaps the best thing: My roommate finally moved out, so now the whole apartment is mine! It's so nice to have a spacious, CLEAN, place to live. Ahh...
Earlier this week I had a small tragedy occur. Let me first start out by saying I love my car, a lot. The other day, on the way to work, I had a blowout, and I lost control of the car and hit a median in the road. Right after it happened, I pulled into the first driveway I got to to check out the damage. The tire was all over, and I bent the rim. One of the rear tires was damaged too, so I couldn't just throw on the donut and move on. So I sat there for a minute weighing all my options, and then the lady who lived at the house I was at drives up. She was probably seventy years old or someting, and incredibly unfriendly. She was not at all happy about me being there; as if I was! So she was grumbling at me from the window of her van, and I just sort of walked away to try and get my stuff together. I called around and set up a tow and such, and the lady opens her garage door and goes in her house. Not two minutes later, the old bag comes out with a diet coke and a fucking cigarette and proceeds to sit in her garage and stare at me until the tow truck came. I couldn't believe it. To wrap this up, it took me two days to find a new rim and get my tires replaced. My car is back now, and all is well though.
So, I'll make the rest of this quick. As some of you may know, I design DVDs for a living. Fairly often I get projects that bore me to tears, or are just plain stupid. In those cases I sometimes feel the need to spice the menus up with something funny. Here is such an example:
I guess maybe it's only funny if you know Flash Gordon.
Finally, here are a few pics I took over the last few weeks. Not the best perhaps, but I haven't had time to really focus on it lately.
The last one is my favorite (in fact I used it in my girlfriend's CD booklet). I hope you all are well. Bye!

I agree with you on the public fornication. While it was novel, it was also kind of sad. But I suppose of all places and events to do it, that was the one.
