i heart art nouveau


there is something about the art nouveau style that i just love love love... and it's not just because most of it is in french. i love collecting things in this style, and someday, i'll have a house full of it.

i love old things: old movies (totally on a gershwin musical kick right now), old music, old fashion (if i could get my hands on it...)

a yugoogly for nessie


oh, dear nessie...

struck down in your silvery years, drug off unceremoniously to meet your doomiest doom in the junk yard! if only your enemy had not been on his teeny tiny cell phone, you might not have been smashed to tiny bits. but you were, and we were sad, so we went home to watch some espin, looking for a little light football, but only demolition derby was on...and it only made me sadderer!

how i miss your quality leather-plush interior...how i feel cut off from the rosy sun without a window to the stars! how music will never be the same without your premium sound system, even if the cd player had broked, nor will my body temperature without your climate control system and duel airbags.

you carried me from hither to thither without much further ado. but alas, i am left only with fred's dump, barely wobbling to and fro in its final throes.


oh for the daiye when again, i will meet you in our happy heaven above! i know you were a little bulimic, but at least reading minds can come in handy in a paradise full of strange people.

until we meet again!

check it out...i'm a published advertiser!


most people know that i run a small marketing/graphic design business from home, ispectrum marketing. well, my first ad just got published in a nationally recognized magazine! this appeared in "scrapbook trends" magazine - not a small fish for that industry, either. i was rather limited by the product photos we had to work with, and the very small size of the ad, but i think all in all it's not too bad...

not exactly the type of thing i can brag about at work though; "hey, congrats, you hired a marketing company so new we just published our first ad!" oh well, it's at least great fun for me :)
