36 Weeks (Mega Update)
I am now officially in my 9th month of pregnancy. Only ~4 weeks left to go! I have a friend who gave birth at 36 weeks and I keep thinking back to visiting her and the baby at the hospital. Sure, the baby was tiny (about 5¾ lbs) but he was still pretty darn cute with […]

“Day Jobs” [Fictional Business Cards]
Designer Fernando Reza has created a limited edition print called “Day Jobs” which features 3.5″x2″ business cards for 21 fictional (and geeky) companies. It’s printed on cardstock, so you can choose to cut out each business card to fill your (fictional) rolodex. I especially love the designs for the Dharma Initiative, Umbrella Corporation, Wayne Enterprises, […]
