this is mostly a joke within the office, but i think enough of you can appreciate this. our lovely eddy is a master of photo manipulation, and he often stays up late at night creating these incredible portraits of our favorite people smack in the middle of someone else. for example, one of my personal favorites is marty as both sonny and cher. there is also a great portrait of marty and me with our uncle, hitler. sometimes the pictures take on a bit of a twisted sense of humor.
anyway, here is his newest creation, in honor of kirby's first triathlon this weekend in santa barbara.
i was going to wait and show him after he finished the race, but i don't think i can keep this one to myself much longer. perhaps i can present the framed version tomorrow evening before we leave. mwahahahahaha.
in other news, i'm excited that ben folds is coming back to california and visiting the warfield in november. i've been talking up how great his live shows are to k for 2+ years now, it's time he experienced one for himself.
also, i'm happy to announce that very soon i will be all mac, all the time. in a bit of a "careful what you wish for" turn of events last week at work, i asked to try out a new monitor for my dell that hasn't been allowing me to see all the proper colors in the rainbow for the entire time i've had it (it finally pissed me off when i was trying to make design edits to our home page and i couldn't see what the hell i was doing). well, turns out it was something in the damn machine, NOT the monitor (i'm guessing the video card, although all drivers were supposedly up to date), and after another attempt with another dell running xp that hates the internet only in my cubicle and crashed photoshop seven times in a row, the mac associate in our little IT department basically said "fuck it, let's get her a mac."
whee! so i'm actually going to take brett's (one of our graphic designers) 20" imac (it's one of the "older" white ones) and he's going to get a new 24" imac. win, win! i'm seriously stoked, it's a great machine bumped up with a ton of ram and running os x leopard. insert dreamy little sigh here.
and that's about all that will fit in this nutshell. heading down to santa barbara friday... lilly is going to drive up to hang out with me and i'll be staying with her friday and saturday. i'm anticipating a lovely, lovely weekend. it's so nice to get away for a few days, even though i'm grateful this is the last weekend for awhile that we'll be going anywhere. |
