Chak De PLS?

Finally I've found some interesting information about this league on the company's website:

This is the company managing the league, and they have more information on trying to find franchise owners:

Interesting information, it has to be said. 

All in Forms

Well, its been my first blog post in a while (even longer without a Photoshop creation attached) but nothing huge has really happened. As the world turns so to speak.  

I've just got into this new show by Lost creator JJ Abrams called Alcatraz. It definitely has a Lost feel (one of my favorite shows of course) but its a bit different as well. I've watched the past two weeks glued to the action. One thing I really like about it is some of the questions it leaves you with at the end of each episode (a la Lost). Now, unfortunately, its not as mind bending as lost is, which is sort of a let down. Its almost as if Fox told Abrams and the writers: We want you to create a Lost-like TV show, but we don't want it to be a thought provoking because we want dumb people to be able to watch it as well. So pros and cons. I'll keep watching, and I think its gotten a decent reception by most, so I doubt it will be canceled. 

In other news, I have had some interesting thoughts recently. The first regards living in a house. I never have considered myself a homebody, but I've been starting to get the feeling that I really want to live in a house that Priyam and I can decorate. We can pick out furniture, paint walls, really expand our lifestyle (and possibly even get a puppy, which is one of my life goals oddly enough). Where has this come from? Who knows, maybe its effective advertising from IKEA or something. Whatever it is, its made me start looking at houses to rent in Albuquerque. The only issue is that we're not quite completely settled here with jobs we'll have for the next ten years and tons of friends etc so getting a house might be a bit ridiculous.

Also, I read about this extremely interesting new soccer league in India with a bunch of former soccer stars:  http://www.firstpost.com/sports/move-aside-cricket-here-comes-the-indian-premier-league-soccer-187002.html

It got me thinking. I really would love to work in soccer. Plus its a new league with a bunch of stars. More to come possibly soon... 

Outta My Life

Well, another day goes by. I changed by twitter background image, you can take a look at it here
(Unless of course you came from there, in which case you've probably already seen it)

Anyway at work this week, I've been helping my boss with a travel magazine that she's been putting together and I've been designing ads for multiple travel operators, including Tauck, which is a high end tour company. This is one of the results of my work. Hope you like it. Click the link to check out the full size. Critiques welcome.

Also, today I'm going bowling as another tour operator, Globus it taking the whole staff to dinner and bowling at Santa Ana Star Casino as a thank you for a great sales year. I haven't been bowling in YEARS. Its been a REALLY long time, so hopefully i don't embarrass myself. We will see...

T-Minus three days until Priyam's B-Day and she's a tad under the weather. I know she'll be really upset if she is sick over her birthday weekend, so I'm doing the most I can to nip it before the weekend comes.

So, I made a background in photoshop, see if you like it... click on the picture to view the actual size...

Anyway, its Priyam's birthday coming up on Sunday, and she's actually, for once, excited. I'm happy when she's happy, so that means I'm in quite a good mood.

Work has been super busy, so I come home exhausted and not really in the mood to do anything but veg out. I'm taking Priyam out to Bath and Body Works this evening so she can pick out some more birthday gifts for herself. This works out a lot better than getting her things she doesn't want and her getting upset about them. 

Right Here, Right Now

While playing around a bit with photoshop I decided to a little art project, and these images were the result. Click on each one to bring up the actual size. It's sort of a series if you will... I call it Forward
