MR HPPY

Today I printed my first two colour image. It was fairly successful. I still need to tweak it a little to get it perfect, but I am happy with the way things turned out. If you want a powell peralta shirt just send me an email, and I'll mail you one. I was looking for old shirts to use as a test print and I came across this 'Mr. Happy', so I fixed it.

So apparently you aren't allowed to have raging fires in a residential neighborhood.


The other night Madi invited some people over for a camp fire in her backyard. Eric Hall, Ryan and I got there early and started things up. We built a nice size fire that was raging pretty well. Enjoying ourselves, and getting rowdy. We went around her yard looking for every possible thing we could burn. Then we look down the road and see what we think is a bus, and all start laughing, "What is that thing, does Katie drive a bus by any chance?"
We are all dumbfounded when we realize it was a fire truck, followed by two police cruizers. A few firemen jump out of their truck and slowly start walking towards the fire. We all just sort of look at each other, and continue to enjoy the warmth of the fire. Without any words exchanged they just knock over our fire and start throwing snow on it. Madi decides to take care of the situation and starts talking to the police. Eric Hall starts heckling the firemen, who have been spraying down our fire for the past 5 minutes. "Hey man, I think its out" "Dude its totally out" "Now thats just over kill" The fire department give us a stern warning and left. Then our friends showed up.

Sights & Sounds


I was on my way to Erics house, when I took this picture. The sun was low and the road was flooded. I stopped for a while just to enjoy the scenery. Whats the point of living in the middle of no where if you don't take the time everyonce and a while to enjoy the sights and sounds. I am happy with where I am in life, only because I know I am on my way up.

Hopeless Romantic


So this year is my first year with a legitimate valentine. I'm not a romantic dude, so I am probably going to fail at this. We are going for dinner with friends, then out on a secret adventure.

Comfort

I have found myself becoming comfortable with the standard routine. I don't mind waking up at 6:00 every morning. I don't mind working a full day. I feel more productive and ambitious, when I come home from work than I did when I would sit around all day. I have a lot of things I want to accomplish in the next few weeks. I want to get them done quick.
Also,
I am sick of sitting around peoples homes. I am over it. I want to be surrounded by people that inspire me, I want to be surrounded by people that motivate me. I am getting sick of watching people drink beer and smoke pot. I am becoming worn out to the things around me.

EDIT: This does not include Erics house. Eric you motivate me.

Screen Press

So Ryan and I made a Screen Press today. It was good times. It felt really good to be productive, and build something cool. Its still going to be a while before we can start printing shirts, but its definitely a step in the right direction. Next step will be a light table.
