I'm working on a couple of ideation sessions right now...sometimes they call for very early mornings and late, late nights. I kind of feel like life gets suspended when you work on a project like this. It's almost surreal, going home and hearing how everyone else is doing.(Gotta thank my Mom for coming up last week though - it was wonderful to have her here -Look, its the NEW thank you note - blogstyle) It's very narcissistic at it's core. I'm hoping to finish BrainMail tonight and send it Friday...I have some good stuff in there - just have to polish it up before I stick it in the window. Keep sending me the great links folks...they always make my day - great reading. Which brings up a question. What's your guilty pleasure in reading? Some people say it's People Magazine, for others its a celebrity scoop rag? What's yours? Drop me a line at [email protected], and I'll tell you mine.

Email Quotes

Lame. Just pitiful. Seriously, if you want some kind of“ inspirational message” at the bottom of your emails use a movie quote.
