I’ve wanted to pick up one of these signed handwritten lyric sheets from Ryan of Yellowcard for a while. When the latest shop opened up, I finally went for it. I picked a song that’s meant a whole lot to me over the years, “Back Home.” It’s a song that started as an anthem for a young me off in college and thinking about what I’d left behind. It’s now a song that makes me think about all I have right now, and how far I’ve come from being that silly kid running off to California.

I’m super happy with how it turned out and can’t wait to frame it for the office wall.

I’m trying to spend my year thinking about how in ten years, that version of me, will be looking back on right now. Am I doing the things that make me happy? Am I living a life that I’ll be proud of? Am I being kind?

Found a spot for the NFG drum head. The new office is coming together. I probably should do an updated full blog post once I finish a few more things.

Mario Universe Hard Drive Icons

LMNT:

The cast of characters in the Super Mario universe is vast. Insetting their badges on low-poly, color-coded Super Mario blocks makes hard drives look super fun. My only regret is not having 34 drives to use them all!

Oh, wow, these are great.

I have some errands to run this morning (haircut!) and then we have Valentine’s Day dinner reservations this evening. So, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to get to writing a newsletter today or if it will have to wait.

Big Thursday kick this week.
