I was part of a panel at Velocity Art and Design’s Lab series last night, and whoo, boy — who knew you had so many questions about blogging? I started to get a bit worried as a few people trickled out the door (no one threw things, though — you break it, you bought it) [...]

Yeah, I knew there was a reason I unsubscribed to Daily Candy. I mean, really.

We called those “turban [...]

Late night, no flash, blurry photos. But it captures the feel.

The place has a sort of swank ’70s vibe. Like you’re having a drink in an episode of Mannix.
There are turntables in the individual restrooms and a selection of scratchy vinyl. And [...]

Piles of bricks make for exciting illustrations.

Really. They do.
Apartment Therapy noticed this post of mine. Cool.
There are still bricks available in Georgetown in the parking lot kitty-corner from Smartypants. And there is still an unruly pile of them in our yard, waiting to take shape. A bit busy this week as the in-laws are coming [...]

hot weekend in seattle: photos

Posted in Seattle, fun, tagged , , on May 20, 2008 | 1 Comment »
