Ink & Snow: Overflow XXV: Catalog

One of the best parts of working at a community museum is that we are able to have our very talented friends come in and do shows with us. One such person is Jamie Smith, a graphic artist whose work goes well past old school notions of editorial cartoons.

Day One

Day One, post one. And she's off ... 31 May 2008 starts off with a ton of things to do and not enough healthy me to do them. I managed to come home from the 2008 Alaska Democratic Party Convention with a brand, spankin' new cold. Several days of cold meds, ab muscles so sore from coughing I've resorted to paid killers, and gallons of tea later - I'm still sick. But determined as today is my first planting day.

At one point, what little meat in the stores was rotten - and Mom just turned to me, shrugged, and said “Looks like we’re going vegetarian for a while” and aside from the occasional cheese omelette, and lots of canned salmon out of Dillingham, we were. Growing up in Alaska back in the day was a lesson in making do. You had to. Doesn’t matter how much money you had if what you needed simply isn’t available. My parents both had high powered professional careers, but that didn’t matter the day 15 year old me had to square off with a full-grown man over the last 100 pound bag of dog food in town. Yes. You read that right. I had a big dog who inhaled his food. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The problem then was a broken supply chain that had collapsed under a massive population growth due to good paying j...

Celebrating May Day in the jury assembly room of the courthouse. Honestly, it could be worse, but considering that I am really out of the loop on so many things, I feel somewhat discombobulated being here. Luckily I decided to ride the bus in so I had a few minutes to think before facing the day. Too bad one of those thoughts was: "Whoops! Forgot about the hay fever!" But judging from what I hear around me, I'm far from the only sufferer.
