Quote of the Week:

All-nighter

Remember the days back in art school when you spent all night on that miderm studio project? Drank a case of Jolt Cola, turned up Love and Rockets (well, for me it was Neil Diamond), and just hammered away at it?

It's so good to be reminded that I can experience the very same feeling in real life. Only this time, it's a client presentation I am tweaking to be just-so; I'm drinking English Breakfast tea (hey, at least it's a step up from the decaf espresso I usually drink these days), and it's Zero 7 coming through iTunes.

I don't want to wake the kids.

So is this me getting old? I am, after all, just passing away from the prized 18-34 demographic, heading into my late 30s, and it makes me wonder how relevant my design sensibilities are. But I have to remember Paul Rand did some of his best work later in life, as did scores of other uber-designers; even Neil Diamond just recorded a gritty new album with Rick Rubin that the kids like (or so I hear). So I won't bemoan my age, rather, I will ignore it. I'm not old enough to revel in it (short man with hat in Buick going 20MPH muttering "whatevah, whateveh, I do what I want!"), so I will just be AGELESS.

God, you can tell I am running on fumes. Note to self: just like drunk dialing, never engage in midnight blogging. Back to the task at hand, and then, blissfully, bed.
