If you missed it when I said it before, I love reading Gaping Void. Of particular interest to me was his How to be Creative posts. Dig around there a little—read it all...it's good stuff.

To say I'm frustrated would be an understatement. WTF? When did this area get so devoid of the need for graphic designers? When did employers decide it was OK to pay $10–12/hr. for the ones they do need? Even the listings on Craigslist for people offering services is getting longer. That tells me there are more and more unemployed designers trying to pimp their services freelance. I wish I could move away from here—go someplace where the cost of living is lower and graphic designer jobs are plentiful. If we didn't have this stupid mobile home tying us down and Marcus hadn't just gotten a new job, I'd seriously consider leaving.

I am always coming across fonts that I want to purchase in the future (when I have money), but I'm always losing the scraps of paper that I write them on or forgetting what they look like and why I wanted them. Today I am making a new category here specifically with the intent of organizing my font desires. Sorry, it's just for me. I'll try to write a real post later this evening.

First up:

I came across this font when I was working at the screen printer.

OK, so here's my horoscope from this morning:



The universe is trying to give me signs.
