Hello friends. I have just been catching up on everyone's bloggs. I'm glad to read that there is not any total decay or discombobulation with anyone. Same goes here. Just a busy little ant (sorry zach) with so much to do and so much to do. My job is starting to kick into gear. I just got assigned two really cool jobs. First, I am designing all the Breast Cancer Awareness posters for Dillards. The advertising dept. has come up with some sort of logo situation but I am totally in charge of the signage and I can be as creative as I want. Pretty cool. Sometime in October look for the signs in the store if you happen to be shopping. October is the BC Awareness Month. Second, Dillards is opening 5 new stores in large cities: Atlanta, Collierville, Dallas, another in TX?, and Charlotte. They have come up with these new fixtures for these new stores called 'transition wall units' and 'window units'. The units are basically 3D rectangular boxes with modern looking shelves, and manican busts, and hanging spots, and a different array of display stuff that can be rearranged accordingly (like for home, or mens, or juniors). They will all look different and each (there are 8 different categories) will tell some sort of 'story' including merchandise and signage. Anyway, I am in charge of putting the story together and designing signage for these units. I am way excited about these projects, especially the units. Its huge. Other than that, I am still working on the freelance stuff for the printing company. I usually spend most of my time after work doing that stuff so I can probably count as much as dan on one hand for times I get to go out and party down.

Speaking of, that brings up a new topic. I just read dan's blog about how much he misses school and you don't know how good you have it unitl after its over. I love school. I could be in school forever. A few summers ago while I was in Canada, I had a revelation that if I could, I would have about 8 different majors and could literally stay in school for a long, long time. I like to do so many different things and I think it would be so great if I could spend my life focusing and studying and learning in extent about these subjects. School is so wonderful but I was so ready to leave jonesboro so it made things bittersweet for me. I could talk about this forever, but I thought it would be nice to see how you guys feel about it as well.

I officially move out on October 7th. Whoo hoooo! I cannot wait. My friend Marci and I are moving into some apartments together and her dog, Margo too. Margo is a warmerainer named after Margo Tennenbaum. I'm so excited about having a dog live with us. I am going to a party tonight to celebrate a birthday, and boy do i need to get out of the house! Whoo!

Well, so long everyone. Enjoy life. Be good.

Here's a little something extra.
Isn't this hilarious? That is my sister (the one on the left) at the Metropolitan Museum in NYC. I made her pose like that next to a sculpture by one of my favorite artists ever, Giacometti. His work is amazing and has so much feeling. You should check him out sometime if you are not familiar with his work.
