Winter Season Festivites


"Christmas lights burn out in time, dear. We see the world in a different light." With Holiday parties all over the place for the next few weeks, I know that the communication between all of us is going to be spotty at best, so Happy Holidays to all of you. May you get what you want, not what you deserve.

I for one am pretty excited about the coming year. We are all scattered all about the country (and world) now, doing that which for some was our life aspiration. Some of us have gotten engaged , some of us have broken up, some of us are now intimately familiar with Southwest Airlines. This is probably as close as I can come to sentimental, but it struck me as a rolled into the office around 9:30 today to a catered meeting that centered around the best Spring Break Bars, that life doesn't get much better. We are allowed to flex our intellect with genuine , interesting people on a variety of projects , in an environment in which childlike curiosity and a dash of insanity are rewarded. Handsomely. (Eventually). And I guess that is a lot of what I am thankful for. So, tip your glass to yourself, I have a feeling you don't do it enough.

I think I'm about to cry Josh. No, I'm not but you're right. It's 5:30 AM here, I haven't slept and I get to go drink my fucking face off in two hours because Naked is taking us to the horseraces and dinner in some swanky place tonight. And we all know how I get at horseraces.

So yes, I love advertising, uhhh, communications planning or whatever Naked does. I still haven't figured it out yet.

I wasn't kidding about the reunion guys either

i hate everyone who loves their job. just kidding... many growing pains invested in the baltimore ad scene. bah humbug... but like coughter says, "You're in charge."

Well, I did actually give a presentation the other day that actually did require flexing a small part of the brain I grew at adcenter.

I'll drink to that this season.
