FaceBook

So I got my family to make an account with facebook so that we can all be connected. I thought it would be fun. So if you have a facebook account let me know so I can add you.

Typography

Most people when they hear the work typography have no clue at what I'm talking about....well its the study for type or fonts. Very interesting to you I'm sure but how often have you glanced over signs and billboards. Type is all around us and after taking the first semester of typography and now am in the Advanced typography class I can tell you for real.....There is a forever amount of it. That's the thing about school especially the classes I take, they educate you about something you should be aware of in your surroundings and then they teach you how to evaluate it next thing I know I'm critiquing signs as I'm driving around town. Now type is pretty much an obsession. Random tangent that I thought would be interesting if just to myself :)

The real reason I am writing about typography is to show my new project that i'm working on. On friday...instead of going on my scheduled blind date that has now been postponed I created 50 unique cupcakes to create an unique alphabet for my advanced design class. Thinking up of a really cute idea at work earlier friday I ran to the store to get stuff for the cupcakes. Shelly and I started making cupcakes at 3:30 and ended at 9pm. It was a long long process. But now I have something tangible to make my typeface. I'll show you the results later after I get it all done.

My New Addition

Well I have EXCITING news!!!!!! so exciting news that its unreal. all right... all right..I'll tell you.....I GOT MY VERY FIRST CAR! I just barely paid for it and got the insurance on it and HOLY COW what a rush. Granted I've pretty much purchased 2 cars in the form of computers but still I now don't have to walk around or spend so much time riding the bus when I have to go to the store. Independence is mine! I don't have pictures yet because I'm still at work....but just you wait....well I guess you have to..lol I owe all of my Car Happiness to Kathy and David :) They found me a really good deal etc. I also owe it to scholarships, saving money, and sadly saying no to a lot of electronics that were screaming to buy them. Later today I'll post some pictures hopefully.

~till another blissful, CAR HAPPY moment

I apologize

I just wanted to say I'm sorry.... I found out a couple of days ago that I changed a setting that wouldn't allow anyone to leave comments on my blog. So if you did try to leave one and couldn't I appreciate the thought. I think know I've fixed the problem but if not Let me know :)
