Future Primitive and More: CTRL + ART + CREATE

I’m feel­ing par­tic­u­larly happy and excited today to announce the first unveil­ing of Future Prim­i­tive, my line of rub­ber stamps. It’s going to be held at Ctrl + Art + Cre­ate on Sat­ur­day, Novem­ber 5, 2011, from 10 a.m. — 2 p.m at the Heights The­ater. I’ll have prêt-à-porter stamps for teach­ers and peo­ple who like to use stamps...

FUTURE HOME, 5K AND ANDERSSON-WISE .

YESTERDAY’S SITE of the DAY ON AWWWARDS was Austin-based Andersson-Wise Archi­tects. I only recently (as in yes­ter­day) found out about AWWWARDS and besides being a super-tool in the best new prac­tices and design on the web, it’s also aided in my dis­cov­ery of new busi­nesses and ven­tures on the web – I mean, if they’ve got a...

“IT MAY PINTEREST YOU TO KNOW…”

“…SPEAKING OF THE PLENTIFUL IMAGERY OF THE WORLD.”- that’s my stu­pid adap­ta­tion of the poem Litany by Billy Collins. A dear friend of mine, Broc, read it at our wed­ding cer­e­mony and broke my heart.But really, the point I meant to deliver was that I just got on Pin­ter­est–my friend Mandy sug­gested it and I was...

DAMN ‘EM.

“Damn the tor­pe­does, full speed ahead!”- Colonel David Glas­gow Farragut As spo­ken by the naval hero at the Bat­tle of Mobile Bay, after news that “the heav­ily guarded bay entrance was filled with mines, then known as tor­pe­does”.Seems appro­pri­ate as we start run­ning our first 5k in just an hour. We’re run­ning with a group...

A SKOSH OF GREECE – PART I

Our hon­ey­moon was more than two months ago and as badly as I’ve wanted to post some pho­tos, mar­ried life is busy! Alas, friends and fam­ily are beg­ging and we really had the best time ever so here are a few to sati­ate your desires – there’s obvs more to come. The above pho­tos are clearly Athens, I...

HOW NOT TO STINK.

One of my best friends and I adore the scent of Kai. We prob­a­bly talk about it way too much. The scent is mag­nif­i­cently light yet intox­i­cat­ing with a secret blend of white flow­ers native to Hawaii. KAI airs on GILT GROUPE in less than 10 min­utes. I’ll be at the front of the line,...

WEDDIN’ INVITES.

Now that the wed­ding and hon­ey­moon are over, I’m excited to finally share our wed­ding details with you guys. First up are our let­ter­press wed­ding invi­ta­tions which, along with our cer­e­mony pro­gram were designed by Jen­nifer Blanco at Prod­uct Supe­rior and printed by Work­horse Prints. My intro­duc­tion to Jen­nifer is cred­ited to Aaron at 31FILMS,...

HOOD GREETIN’.

It’s awfully handy to have var­i­ous carparts at your dis­posal, espe­cially when I got the idea that I wanted to paint a wel­come sign and menu for the wed­ding. I thought it would be pretty bad ass to use a car hood, and luck­ily Steven’s dad aka Crazy Mike let us pull the hood from...

AD VITAM.

AD VITAM is the Latin trans­la­tion of “FOR LIFE” …and it quickly became mine and Steven’s mantra soon after we got engaged. For me, mar­riage isn’t about soul­mates (which I don’t believe in) or love at first sight, and I most def­i­nitely do not give any god or deity credit for our part­ner­ship. We’ve made...

the DOME, continued.

So yes­ter­day – in an attempt to NOT think about wedding-relatedness for 10 min­utes – I posted a bunch of bad ass pho­tos from the mid 60s of the Astrodome, which is cur­rently in limbo between its’ for­mer sports-house glory and its’ future use which is still debat­able. They’ll men­tion it about once a month on KUHF/NPR and only...
