i’ve reached my crap threshold for the week.

and it’s only thursday.  not only do i still have designers block, but i got a bunch of other small, not-so-fun projects piled on top of my cover so i couldn’t spend the whole day staring at a blank screen and doing “research” on the web.  i’m having a big stiff drink when i get home.  and the brit can rub my feet.  actually he can’t.  i’m too ticklish and i’ll accidentally kick him in the face if he tries it.  the apple i had for breakfast/lunch is not cutting it and i’m starting to flag. i have to get out of here soon before i make someone cry (or i start to cry!).

i just finished my last job for the day,  replied to my last email and i’m outta here.  vodka here i come.

designer’s block.

i have some covers to design and i’m sitting in front of my computer drawing blanks.  I don’t even know where to start.  I normally delegate jobs like this but i decided to take this one because i really like the client and the subject matter would allow me use some cool imagery. but nothing is coming to me.

i haven’t felt this way in a long time so i thought i’d do something else and in the midst of doing that something else, an idea will just hit me in the head.  that’s usually how it works with me.  the only consolation i have is a week deadline which is a luxury for this place. now all i need is that one brilliant idea (which i’m sure they’ll reject straightaway but will go in my portfolio) ………………

……………… nothing.
