  1. I found these photos tucked away in my year of reflection. They are not remarkable photos on their own, but I love the little details that they do contain. A favorite restaurant in Northside, now gone. The bar across the street with its gay pride, bear and leather flags. My old VW Rabbit!

    And friends.

  4. My last trip to Waffle House was October of 2019 in Colerain Township (in the before-times). I’d been craving their raisin toast with apple butter and scrambled eggs with cheese ever since.

    Finally got back to one today in my old stomping grounds of Eastgate. When I arrived there were no customers (more thrilling than concerning). The menu had changed with questionable typography. I didn’t see my usual but was able to order ALL THE THINGS with their All-Star Special™ and a few customizations.

    2023 Waffle House menus

    I decided to look up some of their old menus and have decided the new designs above might not be so bad after all. There is solid information hierarchy and lots of respite for the eyes.

    But I kinda miss the dense chaos of the old ones…

  6. RECOLLECTION

    Ordered a bunch of holiday cookies from Take the Cake for an apartment-warming party.

    Everything is coming together nicely. I stepped out at some point and looked back up to the windows of my place, glowing up there on the top floor. A wonderful restaurant called Ruth’s Parkside Cafe would fill that large space on the first floor.

    The building would fill up with tenants.

    I would come to love this apartment.

  12. Seems like the past five years I’ve been involved with clients that put on a big todo for Mobile World Congress, an annual event in Barcelona where mobile tech companies converge to show their latest wares.

    My involvement has spanned booth design, graphics, video editing, animation and always oodles of Powerpoint slides — slides with hundreds of different master templates. (I wonder when Microsoft will retire this nomenclature.)

    So for the past months, weeks, weekend I’ve been switching hats and getting things handled with a team of folks. Today was all about getting another cut of the video that will loop on screens throughout the very large booth. (It’s two stories tall and has meeting rooms.)

    Didn’t get out for much of a photo, so here’s the rendering screen of After Effects. I quite enjoy this moment in the process as rendering takes a while and allows for a break!

  15. There I was back at the dentist. This, the first of many future visits to fix a litany of issues.

    I was beyond nervous, on the verge of a panic attack, and wondering if I’d have to tap out (before anything even began.)

    I stared at the monitor attached to the ceiling — it was running some version of Windows.

    I recalled seeing a behind-the-scenes video about the creation of the desktop image.

    What looked like computer graphics was actually an elaborate production based in reality. Led by GMUNK, a team of 24 used lasers and smoke and a real cut out of the Windows logo to create the image (and some really excellent variants you can peruse on the Wikipedia page).

    So there I am imagining myself in that room, amidst the smoke and lasers trying to be helpful while not being present in my current reality.

    Then the monitor switched to an X-ray of my teeth.

    I mentally stayed in that room with the smoke and lasers for as long as I could, and would return as often as my mind would allow.

    The procedure? Way less painful than I imagined.

    With the help of some numbing agents and a most gentle Hygienist, I survived.
