Thank y'all for all the concerns about my health. I must say that the past few days have been pretty good, with only a smidge of headache. I think I'm getting better, but my stomach still feels a little weird. Makes me not want to eat much, so I can't tell if it's because I'm hungry or because of being sick. I dunno ( Read more... )

OK, so this is day 5 and I am having dull pains occasionally in the back of my skull. Like a sinus headache that comes and goes and is more annoying than incapacitating. I have gone without sleep for days upon end so I don't think that's the problem. I am thinking something else might be up. Also, I seem to be burping alot and my system's a little ( Read more... )

Monsters and Margaritas: a Detroit Guerrillas HalloweenI'd worked like a dog all last week. Overtime chex, here I come! Woot. Just a few more weeks and we'll be over this holiday ads stuff ( Read more... )

I just got a call from an "inside source"... Pontiac 1-5 in Bloomfield Hills is slated to be torn down tomorrow (Tuesday 10/26/04). Since it's not far from my office, I plan to take a drive out there at lunchtime and get some photos and will post a link. Very sad. I believe it's the first and oldest Showcase to be built in Metro Detroit, is it not ( Read more... )

First, some politics stuff. Snagged this quote from a photo in lershee's LJ:

"The penalty good people pay for not partaking in politics is to be governed by those much worse than themselves." - Plato
"Get off your ass, get informed and vote!" the sticker says.

Then this poll from khelinski. It's not scientific or anything, but...

It's almost 2 AM, Saturday morning and we're STILL here at work, about 15 of us. T'is the season for making the holiday advertising! It's a harrowing time of year. OMG. At 4 PM or so Friday, they want us to get out the 1125's and 1126's because the client decided to change things. Some higher-up creatives are here, and they are going over ( Read more... )

Thursday night valkyrias and I went downtown to 4731, a fairly new art gallery in Detroit for the October Detroit Synergy general meeting. Jen and I went to a Synergy event in the past to learn more about the group, but everyone knew each other and it was intimidating to mingle. This time, I am very happy to say that we found success and got the ( Read more... )

clara2805, Jeff and her in-laws came over yesterday night and dropped off a few things their uncle didn't want after their garage sale... including a handmade bar counter. I wanted to build a full bar in the basement but until I get the ca$$$$h, this will do. It's a tall, freestanding counter and has lots of storage behind it. It's a bit 70s with the fake ( Read more... )
