Killer Things Afoot at the Circle K (.B.N.)
So many positive things are happening in the mile jai lai, I'm beginning to feel like Pollyanna over here. For one, I went and met the cats who own P Design (see below) and was totally blown away by their kindness, coolness and candor in terms of the art and retail scene in D-town. Paul gave me a list of recommended galleries here and offered to help me with my business planning (!!!!!) while Pifuka gave me mad inspiration and many smiles with her stylin' jewelry collection. And, for your daily dose of crazy, get this: after being in their store/gallery for about 15 minutes, I noticed that he had Sweet and Bitter open on his computer! No! Way! I had signed up for their mailing list earlier in the day and was totally busted due to the Googling!
Heee!
How totally flattering and exciting.
Suffice it - and rather obviously - I just can't get enough of the flapjacks these kids are slinging, and look forward to cutting into their short stack for years to come. What a great discovery; what a great talent.
In other news of the "Wicked Awesome" variety, I've hired Aaron Lazar, lead singer of the Giraffes, to design my new logo. Though my heart will forever skip a beat for my dear beloved Carl (the artiste behind the Sweet and Bitter logo and splash page and the only boy I would go gay for), I decided I needed a bit of a different perspective. As a longtime admirerer of Aaron's music, art and stylistic moxie, I couldn't be more stoked to get a chance to work with the chap and butter up my rye toast with his brand of mad abiliteez.
Kiddados! Pass the menu! I've got mad things afoot and no times to feel peckish!
