Yes, it’s true … I’m back on MySpace. Eeks!!! Oh, the horror! You see, I joined MySpace back in 2003 after leaving Asian Avenue (haha!) and that was when it was still a pretty new community website. Then everyone and their mothers hopped on board. I found so many old friends that I had not seen in years. It was fun. But, after awhile it became like any other community website, boring. And, it took up so much of my time. Nowadays, I rarely have time for my own family let alone time to surf the web. So, I (formerly “/missbunn”) left MySpace in summer of 2007.

When I’m online, I’m actually reading other photographers’ blogs — yes, I do read what they write! So, when I discovered that one of the many [and very successful] photographers I follow has a MySpace page I checked it out. Then I found all these other photographers that I admire on MySpace, too. Whoa! Where have I been all this time?! And, why would they bother with MySpace? They don’t have time. Ah, I get it: NETWORKING. *ding, ding, ding*

So, I’m back … I’m not sure for how long, but we’ll see! No, my page is not “pimped out” yet, but I’m sure I’ll get to doing something with it before the year is over. Remember, I stalk my own blog more than anyone I know! haha!!!

I also have FaceBook, too. Got FaceBook? HOLLA!!!

Typography? What’s That?! Aesthetics? Who Cares?! Graphic Designers? Who Needs ‘Em?!

A long, long time ago, back in the early 1980s, before the scourge of desktop publishing made every secretary a “designer,” typography was integral to the aesthetic of graphic design. Then, to the horror of those who care about design, programmers became designers and graphic arts went to hell. And typography went down the tubes with it. *sigh*

My grandmother died on Sept. 22 almost nine years ago. On the night before she passed, she wanted to spend some time with me, but I didn’t realize it until it was too late. I sat by her side during her final moments; she saw me in uncontrollable tears and placed her cool hand on my cheek as if to say, “It’s okay.” I’ll never forget that feeling, the biggest regret of my life. But, it’s not too late for you — LOVE WHILE YOU STILL CAN.
