you know that feeling...

when you take a bite of deep dish (or some other equally cheesy pizza) and you are like "oh shit! this cheese might be so stringy I choke to death!"

Thats what this cat is thinking...

What I've been up to...

So, I'm still alive! But I am working on a new wordpress site that hopefully I'll have up and running before the end of February.

In addition to that I've been working on lots of stuff... and to prove it I took pictures!

(vegas / letterpress / pizza shop window designs / DIY cat bed!)

gameboy color

Yes, I do feel old when I call my DS a "game boy" and get funny looks from the much younger generation. If I could just find my walk man... oh sorry ipod.

well you're WELCOME for this link to a free gameboy color emulator that lets you play all the oldies online. Maybe if I can get enough of those kids to try it I can make the game boy name cool again.

brimfield antique show

So last weekend smith and I made the drive out to the Brimfield antique show to see what all the fuss was about. In one word it was amazing.

After about an hour and a half of driving we stumbled upon the mother load of awesome antiquing. I was in such awe at the number of people, smith had to remind me to pay attention to the road.

We walked around until I was sufficiently sunburned (doesn't take much lol). According to the map I printed ahead of time, we didn't make it thought more than 10% of the show in our 3 hours of wandering.

At the end of the day we made it home with a William H Littlefield original and some very cool letterpress type. I'm going back for sure in July, September, next summer, ad infinitum. If you are in the area you should definitely check it out. But be sure to bring your water bottles - I have never seen such long lines for lemonade in my life!
