Doing a lot of driving these days, and enjoying every minute of it. I’m currently sitting in Kate’s apartment in New York, working on client projects and singing faint hosannahs to the gods of mobile computing.
I do believe that for my next trick, I’m going to subscribe to the T-Mobile HotSpot service so I can work from any Starbucks. Rock.
Oh! And I may have another project in the works… I don’t want to jinx it yet, but I’ll post some more as it happens.
AND — the autumn Inkblots should be showing up around November 1, so if you’re looking to contrubute, now’s the time to start scribbling!
Thanks, everybody — I’ll post more later!
