Song for the Insomniac

It’s late sleepyhead
Tired, but you can’t sleep
And though I am away
I’m sending you deep tranquility
So you can dream of me
Just close your eyes
And hear my humming
I’m coming

Let my song blanket you, sweet man
Carried on caravan to the stars
I’m lying next to you
Let your mind go
And float away
And flow my way

This song is for my insomniac
Sit back and unpack your worries
I’m here to take you to the place
Where your heart is calm

I’m your cure
I’m your sleeping pill
And your pillow, dear
I’m your cure
I’m your sleeping pill
And your pillow, dear

This song is for my insomniac
Sit back and unpack your worries
I’m here to take you to the place
Where your heart is calm

nerd alert!

today i was handed a clic eraser
and i lit up like a school girl.

i wrote in pencil on everything today
and even made a few errs
on purpose.

my favorite eraser is still the pink pearl.
love that font.
ps. it is fun to type the word eraser...

the ebb

my heart beats up and down
nothing in this town
makes it make that sound
but you

the light comes in and out
like the ebb of hope and flow of doubt
please don't make me wait like that
again

nana nana na na!

so i drive... alot.
and really enjoy my time in the car.
i listen to good music,
brainstorm about design projects,
catch up on phone calls with friends,
get lost & explore new areas, etc.

however, it does get frustrating
when you run into a road jerk.
and boy can the fingers fly!

but i've come up with a different plan.
i stick my tongue out.
seriously.
and here's the thing - it works.
(and keeps me off the 10 o'clock news)
try it sometime.

you lucky man


i really got into van morrison yesterday
and it got me to thinking about
my friend's
little baby boy
and how lucky he is to
be called by
the same name.

this is the baby shower invite i designed for his mama.

think ink


when i was thinking about a new tattoo,
i came up with this mobile design -
like
a twist on the charm bracelet.
i liked the idea of adding on

throughout life when something inspired.
can't you just see it down a beautiful back?

the heart of the home
