08.30.10 | songs stuck in my head

last weekend, i played a bonfire-at-the-beach set for friends… it was probably the longest i’ve played the guitar at one time in a loooong while… my fingertips were hatin’ me the next day

the playlist was pretty diverse — from weezer to dave matthews to roy orbison (yea… random)

anyways, these three songs stuck out from the night — they’re stuck in my head still… i gotta say, they’re pretty fun to play and they bring me back almost 10 years when i was first startin’ out on the guitar…

gonna try soundcloud for this — we’ll see how it works

08.30.10 | new shirt ideas

inspired by greg…

Mouth Hugs

Tummy Sticks

these would be sold at my new clothing company, “animated gifts” (i’m so clever…)

08.19.10 | graphic design skillz: elementary

so this friday, my work is throwing a summer picnic over at mission bay… shirts are being printed to commemorate the occasion

i saw the creative dept creating some designs so i decided to get a piece of that action… all their stuff was super nice, using floral-ish brushes

…then here’s me with my design… i think it’s awesome — i’d rock it outside of work (maybe)

and you know my name is simon...

oh yea… and i’m not even going to this event — but how awesome would it be to see roughly 100 people rockin’ this shirt at the beach?

…tho my shirt didn’t win… i was one of the finalists! #smallvictory (yes, i just used a hashtag in a blog post… weird)
