que la chingada.....
So I wanted to see all the pictures that we took of our trip to Texas, and all of them got erased somehow. Some dumb camera error. That's really annoying.

What inspires me when I start my workday, take a break, or just for fun.
These clowns are hilarious. They're dancing to a song titled Culiquitaca. I have no clue what that word means, but the dance it's something else. I hope people start making their own culiquitaca videos, and send them to it. I'll see if I can get people to do that.
My first Solo Project is a book, it's done and guess what? It arrived today!!
So the first project that I got at my new job was a book titled "What Does Hope Look Like." It's a series of Intaglio prints created by Students at the St. Johnsbury Academy, in Vermont. If you're wondering what intaglio is, look it up and educate yourself. It took a while for me to figure out a layout, and for printing we used blurb.com. This publishing company is a great resource for people who want to create a book, and get one copy printed. The price for ours was 55 bucks, next day shipping. The book arrived today, and I'm pretty happy with the quality, although there are some small mistakes that I have to work on, such as color errors. I wanted a beige color, and I got a light yellow, which is not that bad, but it's not what I wanted. Oh well, we have to proof the heck out of the book, so we can get final ones printed, since this was just a proof to see how blurb prints their book.
From Breakfast Tacos to Waffles - I moved to Vermont
So I began a new adventure. After 3 months of being unemployed, and being turned down from jobs that I was pretty sure I would get, I decided to say "To hell with it, lets do it" I got a job as a freelance designer in Vermont. I wasn't too sure about the move at first, because it's just not my thing, but hey I have a car to pay, and I have to get my priorities straight, so that's why I went for it. I drove from Texas all the way up to Vermont, it tooks 4 days since we stopped, or maybe 3 I forget. It's 2139 miles. I was getting sick of driving, but it was worth it. I got to see Elvis's house and write my name on his wall. Lets not forget about Kate's dad, he flew down to Texas and helped me drive up. I will post more information along with pictures later, once I figure out this whole blog thing out.
