i'm addicted to the L word podcast


poster by meg for modern dog

here's the final revision of the emily haines poster. i think i nailed it this time... it only took like 3 weeks or something rediculous. i'm so stoked to see my work screen printed on a glorious 18x24 inches around seattle. *pats self on back*

yesterday i made friends with a lovely gay couple who moved here from pennsylvania. jenny is a printmaker and sloan is an ad designer at the seattle times. we're going to go on arty adventures and play board games. they also have a cat named nip nip that seems to have taken a liking to me. hooray new friends!

speaking of cat's, i just booked the sush a $95 plane ticket from allentown to seattle!!!! YAAAAAAY SMOOSH!!!!

i'm also going to enter some of the photos of nonnie in a call for entries at a gallery downtown for a show on love. here's hoping they decide to put my stuff in their show! this could be very exciting : )

aim conversation of the day:
phil: i just got invited to the 3rd birthday party of somebody's stump
veritas368: somebody's stump??
veritas368: is that a euphamism for a child?
veritas368: cuz if it is i like it
pbeber@microsoft.com: no

pbeber@microsoft.com: where an arm used to be

my 2¢: you aren't going to see your posters up around seattle for long b/c people are going to quickly snatch up such a swank looking poster! :) kudos kiddo! it looks mighty fine!

Wow, I can't believe I just randomly came across this.

In January 2007, I saw Emily Haines in Chicago. She was so amazing that a week later I flew to Seattle to see her again. One of your posters was in the window of the Crocodile Cafe, and after the show I asked a bouncer if I could take it. He happily allowed me. I toted it back to SEATAC that night and slept on the floor of the airport with the poster rolled up and tied off with a Jet Blue elastic luggage tag.

The next day I flew back to Wisconsin with the poster carefully stored between my knees on the plane. It's now framed and hung on my wall and is one of my most prized possessions.
