I'll show you mine, if you show me your's.

I got back from my mini-vacay in the Virgin Islands, where I watched my brother get hitched, just in time to make it to Portfolio Night 7. The night was really interesting and a bit intimidating - but TOTALLY worth the nervous pee's I had early in the evening. I met up with a few of my ad chums, snacked on some food, resisted the incessant urge to dance (they were playing so many good 80s tunes) and listened to some really great advice on my book, and some great compliments, as well. I am surprised to say this, but the evening was very reassuring. Despite the current "economic kick in the shin" that is happening to all of us ad folks, it was nice and comforting to be surrounded by some great ad brains. That said, if you're an unemployed ad peep, and Portfolio Night is coming to your 'hood, I highly recommend it.

dear patron saint of get me a new j-o-b, NOW.

I spent most of the weekend working on my portfolio, and I'm thinking it is a MUCH better representation of me and my work. Its much more playful, and I'm digging the black and white. After all that portfolio work, I woke up this morning with my brain full of ideas and rearing to go. I went out on a walk early this morning and just collected them all into a little bundle and am slowly ticking away on them. . Now, I must go get more cawfee, but I hope your Monday is also playing niiiiiiiiiiiiiice.

Also, I wish I did this.
