Eye-oh-way...
Had a fantastic weekend excursion to northeast Iowa, and that's some damn good country, even on a wet, grey November afternoon. Beautiful rolling hills and strong, honest folk. Totally not what I'd expected, because the parts of Iowa I'd seen before...well, they looked a lot like Nebraska or Dakota—fairly barren and unremarkable to the untrained eye. I'd highly recommend a trip to NE Iowa for any skeptics, it'll change your mind about the state.
Made some business cards for Naz, which we commenced to Gocco-in' on Thursday evening, in time for his fancy art show on Saturday. They turned out alright, I think we were both fairly happy with 'em, though we spent about an hour talking about and debating various color combinations before finally settling on an old favorite; blue and brown.
Speaking of Gocco Fever, I plan on printing my own holiday cards over the Thanksgiving weekend, so hopefully I will have them actually in the mail, God forbid, before the actual Xmas or New Year's dates. That means that now is the time to send me your address via e-mail in hopes of receiving one, confident that they will follow in roughly the same Masterful Traditions sketchily established some five years ago.
Still busier than Cripes Jebus with my catalog project in full-swing. No time for much else, lots of weary 12-hour days spent staring my adversary in the ugly, god-damned 1280x960 eye while my wrist and fingers creak and stiffen.

I'd hunt for mice by night, sleep during the day and then curl up in laps by a warm fire in the evening. Also, kuddos on the business cards - what a suave emo boy Naz is, can I get his number?
Posted by: dorothy at November 20, 2003 09:42 AMthis is perhaps a curious question, but maybe you can help. i am looking for an old friend of mine, by the name of ms kristy ternes. it appears that she has dropped off the face of my world, but she has come to light in relation to your site. however, i cannot email you directly because something is not set up, and your email link is not working for me. do you know how i can find this girl? please email me, or better yet, have her email me at miss_smartypants@hotmail.com. this is totally for real, i miss her.
