New Twitter Background
I finally got a few minutes of downtime which is pretty rare for me and decided to spice up my twitter background.
As a graphic designer & developer, it frustrates me that I don’t have a custom bad-ass web site and personal social networking designs. I spend all of my time designing for others and never have enough time to design for myself anymore. It’s unfortunate because the reality is, no matter how many hours I put in each day, I still seem to be getting no-where financially.
The thing that sucks about my field at the moment is that no one is really willing to pay what us designers and developers are worth. In turn, projects take longer to complete and are more difficult because freelancers end up having to take on more projects at a time, at lower costs than normal, in order to pay the bills & survive.
I strongly believe that if clients were willing to pay more, designers could focus more of their attention to the one specific project at hand and not worry about having to take on others just to stay afloat.
Regardless, I took a bit of time I had left over after completing a task and decided to finally design something for myself. Check out my new Twitter Background image and feel free to comment and let me know what you think.
I have uploaded it to the server in case anyone wants to use it as their background. I understand that it’s a personal background and has all my links on it, but if anyone requests a custom made one for use on their page, I will gladly create one for them as time permits.

New Deadstar Tour Dates to be Announced
As the new year rolls in, I’ve been spending my time trying to figure out what’s going to happen as the days fly by. I begin to wonder where the last year’s worth of hard work has gone. Things have been hectic, but finally beginning to come together. After meeting at the studio to help master the new Deadstar Assembly CD, Coat of Arms, we also discussed going back out on tour after it’s release. The release date is planned for the very end of March. This will be close to or on our anniversary of our very first live show. For those of you who know our history, we graced the stage at the Culture Room in Fort Lauderdale Florida on March 30th, 2002! Seems so long ago…
Here’s a sneak peak at our new look & feel and be sure to look out for the upcoming tour dates.
The full tour officially starts Mid-April as dates are coming in faster than ever…

My Synchronicity.
For those of you who have heard me make synchronicity references, I just began putting together a web site which will hopefully one day explain this weird phenomenon. http://mysynchronicity.com
New Domain Name, TheDro.com
Some guy emailed me and told me he had TheDro.com for sale.
I replied and he asked me to make him an offer.
I offered somewhere around $100000000
He told me he’d cut me a Deal and sell it for $397.
I told him to fuck off.
Scout Playing Fetch
Got bored tonight and started throwing the dog’s tennis ball at the wall and my Fennec Fox, Scout, began trying to catch it mid air. I decided to film it after a friend of mine asked to see the video, so here it is for the rest of u who are wondering how a fox plays fetch…
One Missed Call
I love that these are the type of messages people leave me.
And I Also love that Google Voice makes it way Easy for me to Share it with the World.
