I’ve suddenly come into a run of great work over the last week so I’ve been frantically typing up legal documents with the help of the Graphic Artist’s Guild (the website URL kills me). I haven’t taken the steps to protect my work in the past and now that I’m doing a “real” job, it is time to get serious. It kind of saddens me how easy it is to lose rights to your own work without preventative measures. Expect a new website (not mine, a client’s), and possibly a new logo for another in the not too distant future.

I was going to complain that it has been too cold lately, but that is pretty relative to what I am used to. It is obviously colder than San Diego, and definitely colder than it needs to be, but nothing near what a lot of cities get. Seattle can be pretty soggy, but the temperature stays in a lovely range all year round. It isn’t usually colder than 40, and is rarely warmer than 80. There are exceptions of course, but not too often.

Saturday was spent amongst the nerds at the Science Fiction Museum. We’ve had tickets since last year and it was literally the last day that we would be able to use them. My company’s holiday party was there and I wasn’t able to stay longer than half an hour thanks to a little chemo sickness. A lot of the gear and costumes just prove to me how talented the lighting people are in Hollywood. Most of the stuff looks horribly fake but shows up beautifully on screen. I just don’t retain the same nerd passions I had when I was younger. 10 years ago that museum would be heaven. These days, I am just trying to make sure that we don’t end up with a ticket by staying over our 2 hour limit.

Our friend Erin is leaving for Eugene to help her sister who is about to have a baby. We threw a party for her since it was relatively close to her birthday anyways. We played stupid amounts of Rock Band and enjoyed the company.

This nonsense is kind of all over the map. Sorry. Get off my back. I will post something real with pretty drawings soon’ish.
