later

this afternoon i visited the client for the cyclocross poster to make sure they were on board with the drawing, and it went well. spent a bunch of time working with jason on some changes to the current website, preparing files for a much-needed update.

also spent some time connecting the dots relating to some asswipes who have been selling bootlegs of my prints on ebay.

i told michael from aesthetic apparatus about this blog. now i have told two people.

i think i should start keeping track of the times i get asked to design wedding invitations or birth announcements, both of which i will not do anymore. today i was asked to do one birth announcement and two wedding invitations.

i worked more on splicing and cleaning up the keyplates for both the cyclocross and nada surf prints, then moved on to the drawing for the new metropolis coffee poster. got it most of the way to 'good'.

tony, owner of metropolis coffee, stopped by...



... to see what i was working on, and made a suggestion about the paper which i think will bring the poster up to the level of the coffee shop the poster is for.

tony took me out to an amazing store in skokie called cigar king.

came back, and di wanted to watch 'the office', which led me to sit through half of '30 rock', and half of 'ER', two shows i have never seen before. 30 rock was funny.

put in a rather large order with french paper, for the next several jobs. about 4000 sheets. oof.

finally figured out how to make my cam *not* reverse the pictures it takes, so it doesn't look like i wear my wedding ring on my right hand, as michael apparatus pointed out.

now i'm settling in to finish cleaning up the nada surf film, and hope to start cutting rubylith.
