I thought it would be fun to post random sheit that made me happy recently in the midst of all the stress going around.
This week seems like it was a good one for images. This is an invitation to post  what ever makes you happy.

Designers rule [thumbsup] Improving electronics for women everywhere   ;D ;D ;D

I wish I could have made it to that IDSA event, but I couldn't have stayed very long if I did. Next time!



IDSA (industrial Design Society of America)
They get pretty crazy. This one was fairly tame - just girls in sequence outfits jumping rope @ Mighty with a free open bar.

At an earlier IDSA event, one of my friends got tanked with the president of Frog(a really big design firm), then got in a fight with him which ended with a little  headbutting. This resulted in him getting hired by said president the next week.  [thumbsup] I could not make this up.

I guess you could say its a work hard play hard kind of lifestyle  [laugh]

Clearly I should have been a designer.   Crap.  >:(


These three rotate as my happy desktop background now.  Now that it's raining I need them even more!  I'm glad I went for a ride on Wednesday given the forecast.
