This is why I LURVE Creature Seattle
Seattle has never been the promised land for advertising. As beautiful and inspiring as the city is, there was never a Madison Avenue golden era.

However, the first time I see...

Interview with Jennifer Patterson
On Friday at work I had the chance to sit down with Jennifer Patterson, The group planner for DirecTV. She gave me some awesome advice.

a very usc thanksgiving.
This year is the first year I didn’t go home for thanksgiving. I have a lot of work to catch up on and Brent, Nick and I have been planning this for a while. It was good. pre-cooked honey baked turkey, I made all the sides myself and a full day of football on tv. Not bad for my first thanksgiving away.
happy holidays!

I am disturbed by this.
Live Puppy Cam
Ok, I usually love hearing about the latest trend, but this one I just don’t get. The Shiba Inu Puppy cam is live real time documentation of 6 puppies. What? I mean I LOVE puppies, but people just watch these puppies all day? Seriously?
