Things have been crazy, and I've been working on some wedding invitations for a friend... I'll post pictures soon once it's finalized, but in the meantime, here's a picture of a little girl on the mini cruise that travels around the Seattle harbor.

The number of motorcycles was astounding. Usually, there are even more than in the photo! To cross the street, you have to just get up the nerve to go, and walk slowly and at a steady pace. The motorcyclists will honk and veer around you.

I had gone to Vietnam to work on my Agent Orange book. The mini hotel I where I was staying was down the street from here, and the hospital where I was volunteering was behind me and to my right.

Happy New Year! I hope that the new year is treating you well thus far.

My design resolution for 2010 is to design something every day. Smashing magazine inspired me with this great article, which included examples by designers who did design every day for a year.

Also, for 2010 I've created a new look for the website and would love to know what you think about it.
