Caught In The Whirlwind
Counting Down The Days
Things have been, thankfully, quiet this week, with only a few minor events to write about. And after last week…yeah, I think I’ll take quiet any day.
So, first up, we’ve discovered we have a mouse in our apartment. My roommates cat has been stalking our dishwasher for the past few weeks and last night, Jay found her with a mouse in her mouth, looking totally confused as to what she should be doing now.
She dropped it, which lead to a merry chase as we tried to capture it. It escaped into one of the electrical baseboard heaters in the downstairs bathroom and the cat seems to have given up the hunt. So I’m not sure if it’s gone or lost or what. I’ll update if the saga continues.
Other than that, things have been, as mentioned, uneventful. I’m mostly just playing persona 4 at the moment and working on my mom’s website design off and on. I’m trying to draw up a spool of thread in Adobe Illustrator that I can use in the header as it needs something. Hoping to get that done today so I can also use it in my Digital Typography class tomorrow when I’m making up an envelope design for her too. Figured might as well combine projects!
The big thing I’m waiting for now is Saturday, where my friends and I are going to head down to, among other places, Bully Hill Vineyards in the finger lakes wine country for some wine tasting, hopefully touring and dinner. We’re also going to try to hit a couple other places in the area, including a micro-brewery. But we’re concentrating mostly on Bully Hill as far as time spent goes. Should be a good time I think.

I live a few miles from wine country and so the idea of “wine tasting” has lost it’s appeal
Do you have your mom’s site active, so I can peak at it? I’d be interested to see how it’s going!

Boo
We’re pretty close out here, but I’m mostly going as an excuse to get outside in the fall with my friends. And eat at the restruant a bully hill. I’ve heard it’s excellent.
Here’s the latest preview image: http://www.nopurpose.org/stuff/layouts/kgsewing_preview.png Keeping in mind things aren’t final (the body text and font sizes are mostly filler right now) and I need to do something more with the site header. But that’s where I’m going with it I think.

That preview looks great! I like the rounded edges, it such a small thing but it makes sites look so much cleaner without looking homemade.
