I don’t really think you can officially say it’s spring until dandelions are in bloom. To me above all things spring is here when that beautiful weed is here. I don’t like that people consider them a weed. I certainly do not consider them a weed. They smell like a flower. Look like a flower. And taste like a flower. I did use to chew on these when I was a youngin’. I’m super glad to know that spring is here.

I definitely enjoy the warm weather. But I do not think I’d like the warm weather all year round. I’d become very irritable. So I’m glad that we have four seasons here.

I’m glad that spring is here, but I’m patiently waiting for something far better than spring… This rumored new iPhone 3g that may be announced at the WWDC(World Wide Developers Conference) in June. I am dying to have this iPhone and I don’t even know what features it will have, but who cares. The only thing I’m hoping for this new iPhone are two things. A rather good camera with a zoom lens and it should be able to record video! I can’t believe the current iPhone does not record video! Oh well, it better.

Another thing that I can’t wait for is this new Gossip Girl spinoff about Serena’s mom, Lily. Brittany Snow is going to play a young Lily. It should be pretty amazing. It’s to be set in the 1980s and well that in its self is fucking awesome. Look at this promo ad! OMFG! He he. I do believe I’m as gitty as a school boy right now:

And to make matters even better, No Doubt, will playing themselves back in the day. I’m glad they are back together because I need my No Doubt. “I’m just a girl…”

Speaking of No Doubt. Have you seen Gwen Stefani’s new look. Words do not describe:

And now back to me. My phone is still not working and AT&T is to have a tech person call me by tomorrow or else. I really never knew how many times I make a phone call, until you don’t have one. On my days off Danny shares his phone with me so we can still communicate back and forth for the store. I dislike his phone a whole lot, but I’m not going to complain because a phone is better than no phone. I really think I can manage waiting for a few more months for the new iPhone, even though a little piece of me dies every day, I’ll make it.

Oh and let me tell you something else. X-Men Origins: Wolverine kicked motha fuckin’ ass! Wow there was so much in there I’m still absorbing it all. I really enjoyed Hollywood’s version of connecting all the dots. From who Wolverine really is, to a whole bunch of side stories that I felt were not in the way, just an added bonus. And the last battle scene in the movie with Deadpool pretty fucking neat shit!

—–Days Later—-

I haven’t had a decent post in a while because I haven’t had much to talk about. So sporadically I’ve been adding to this one post when I have something to say. Like last night I saw Star Trek. Move over all those celebrity crushes I’ve had lately…

I’ve had a thing for All American Boys as far back as I can remember. When I was little they made me giggle. When I was in eighth grade they were cool. And over time cool translated into I have a massive crush on you. Well Chris Pine is beautiful but what makes him more beautiful is he is a fucking amazing actor! Bravo!

I admit I wasn’t a really big Star Trek fan growing up and don’t really know much about the franchise, but I’m willing to learn because it’s so cool. I have seen marathons of the old television show and I’ve enjoyed them. I’ve seen Star Trek: Wrath of Khan and I did watch Star Trek Voyager with Captain Janeway regularly. So I believe I am a fan, just not a very knowledgeable one. Oh well I’m young so I have plenty time to learn.

AND P.S. I HAVE A NEW PHONE! YAY! THE SAMSUNG SGH-A737!

Do you like my new Facebook profile picture? You don’t? That’s okay you don’t have to like the Queen. You just have to deal with the facts that you are living in denial. Nah. I’m not that superficial. I’m going to show you my top five favorite t-shirt designs I’ve created and tell you a bit about each of them.

Let’s start with GLAMOROUS!

When I first bought the Fergie cd I was totally excited for her song Glamorous. I believe it embodies how every artist should feel about their fame. It’s really great and amazing to be famous, but “I still go to Taco Bell, Drive thru raw as hell.” I had a vision when I heard this song of velvet ropes and the celebrities are behind the rope or bouncer who’s holding a sign Glamorous. I took photos of each of my friends and myself and then put them through several effects in Photoshop and then ended up with the look. (From left to right Kelly, Jackie, Me, Danny, and Lnz)

The Sponge of Love

This design was created back in early February 2004. What can I say? Love was in the air. I was talking online with Danny and our friend Matt and listening to Janet Jackson’s Just A Little While. I was incredibly excited for my first Valentine’s Day with Danny and just generally in a super good mood. As I remember Matt was not in a good mood so I suggested he could absorb some of my happiness. He said something to the effect, “Sure. I’ll soak it up like a sponge.” Instantly I thought The Sponge of Love. Of course later The Sponge of Love birthed an arch nemesis called The Sponge of Evil!

Breathe

Now what I love about this design is it sold a whole lot! In one month I sold seven t-shirts for the ladies. So cool. Danny wasn’t ever really interested in this design, which I think is why fate made it sell over and over again. In total, without promotion of my store, I’ve sold 16 items with this design on it. The idea was inspired by all the times that I wished I would’ve just taken a breath and let go of all the bull shit. So this design means a lot to me.

The Undiscovered Collection

There was something amazing about this design. I have never seen anything quite like it and I have Photoshop to thank for it. It originally started as a gift for my aunt denise and then turned into much more. I used some cool effects on Photoshop and then used the air brush tool to apply makeup onto myself. A lot of the times I totally feel undiscovered and wish I’d be undiscovered and that’s pretty much where the title came from and I was listening to a lot of Ashlee Simpson when I made these!

Last but not least. The Shanikwa Shanikwa Show logo.

I’ve put a lot of time, effort, and sweat into Shanikwa Jones. I have created a character who I think is very original and I totally love her. I love the look of the logo because it looks like one of those old cartoons from Warner Brothers. Sort of like Porky the Pig at the end of each cartoon. It just works so well with branding the show. So please if you haven’t watched the show, try it out!
