Heh. It's been a looong time since I've used it.

I will definitely look into it.

Thanks to Ginger and tippr, I have just placed a huge order with Vistaprint, which means I won't have to think about business cards for a very long time. Plus, I've got a couple of new t shirts, some flyers, rack cards for an event coming up, thank you cards, postcards and such.

Phew. Thank goodness that is over.

Thank you so much for the pdfs Ginger!! It's a pain not having the right tools for the job. I deeply appreciate the assist.

Freelance Freedom comic. I just mainlined all of them pretty quickly.

Even though it's about a graphic designer, it's pretty right on. (I like #'s 83, 53, 47, 46, 38, 35, 31, and 23 especially. Not that I'm anal and wrote them down or anything...)

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I was kind of bummed out for the last few days, not depressed, but just kind of resigned.

Then, I went to a networking event today and meet some great people (used the new cards. I finally figured out that I could get a not crazy gmail by adding "DC" to my old AOL address.) One guy wanted to talk to me about being on the board of a small HBCU in Virginia. I'm also setting up a lunch next week to talk with a guy who owns a consulting firm that works exclusively with the legal industry.

Then I got a call from the Connecticut folks that they want me back for a second interview. I feel like I should buy a lottery ticket.

Our wings are not tired.

Those sound like promising connections, Vortex.

That's a lot of good right there, Vortex.
