Ahhh...spending my afternoon drinking some Cap'n Mo on the rocks and designing promo packs...see, this is why I quit my job. This is definately much more fun. And the promo packs are coming out even better than I thought. Right now I'm just doing a stripped down version for HITL...they have such a great sound, but really never paid enough attention to image or content. I was able to get Tom to send me a really nice bio though, and I've dressed up a good live pic to use instead of a promo shot until they get that taken care of. So that pic and bio dressed with a good use of album imagery and the band logo have given me a good start. I'm currently working on trying to get the album reviewed at a few places so that I can expand the pack in the next few months. But trying to find industrial webzines that haven't died in the last few months is like trying to find the beer at a frat party. A lot of the really reputable zines have suddenly gone out of business, literally within the last few weeks. So that's disappointing, but I'm still looking.

I guess that also means RAM is now one of the top active zines now. Allllriiiight.

I also had a nice lunch with my boy today. I'm happy I've been able to see him so much lately. He's so sweet. He's the one who treated me to my bottle of rum, lol. Definately gonna miss this one.

In other news, my mom is having her surgery today. My dad called a little while ago and said she was out of the OR now. Said everything went well, so she should be home tomorrow. I think either tomorrow or Friday I have to drive her up to Lynchburg. One of our friends' father died, so we need to go to the funeral. I have a feeling I'm going to run into some people I'd rather not see, but I guess now's as good a time as ever to put even older business behind me.
