Holiday Style!

Happy holidays, y’all!  You may notice we’ve got our holiday girls styling up the joint, along with our snowfall. We like to spruce things up with a little holiday cheer.

Just a note that we’re booking clients for projects starting in January, so if you’re interested in having us work on your site in 2012, please submit your requests for proposal as soon as possible.

We’re looking forward to working with you!

Happy Halloween! (And An Availability Update)

BOO!  Hope everyone is getting ready for a fun Halloween Monday!  Not much is going on, spooky-wise, here in Las Vegas. I may pass out a little fun-size nosh, but otherwise am working and packing for a short trip to my hometown, San Diego, 11/1 through 11/3 for my birthday.  I’ll be back in the office Friday, November 4th through Thanksgiving, but after that I am unavailable until after the holidays—in January to be precise.

This year, from Thanksgiving to the New Year, I’m working on a project that has been on the calendar since earlier this year. I will be available for consultations and proposals for new work, but will be unable to start new work until mid-to-late January at the earliest. I do have a project booked for January and some projects are pending that may take January out of the running altogether. I’m only able to accept a limited amount of projects per season, so if you’re interested in working with me, I’d love to hear from you. Please fill out our Request for Proposal form so we can get cookin’ on a consultation and get your project on the calendar.

Kathy has limited availability, as she’s in the office part-time, but may be available to start your project sooner, so if you’re interested in working with Kathy, please fill out a Request for Proposal, as well.

We’re really excited about the coming weeks and the project we’re working on. Looking forward to sharing more about it with you soon.  Have a wonderful, happy, safe and sugar-laden Halloween.  :cheese:

STOP. Boobie Time!

It’s that time of year again—time for the 10th Annual Blogger Boobie-Thon.  We’ve been supporters and participants for the past 9 years and we hope you’ll take a moment to get involved in this worth cause.

If you’re not familiar with Boobie-Thon, in essence, bloggers and website personalities take photos of their breastages—both male and female, but mostly the ladies—and submit them to the Boobie-Thon for posting. Other people donate cashola to witness the boobies in all their glory. There’s even an *uncovered* gallery (read: nudies) for donations over $50, but here’s the catch: there are no faces. So it’s perfectly fine to submit your own! It’s all very anonymous.

All the proceeds from this annual 7-day event go to Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, as well as a special “Bloggers Helping Bloggers” charity, which changes every year. This year, the recipient of this portion is our very dear friend, Wendy, who whooped breast cancer’s ass just this year.  With all the financial strain having cancer puts on one’s life, Wendy is an amazing, strong survivor—but the woman still needs to eat and pay the electric bill. You can read about Wendy’s story here and and on her site, a little c.

Another perk: we’re doing a giveaway!  We’re saddling up with Green Couch Designs and Emtwo Web Studios to create a custom blog design for you!  Your minimum donation of $25 enters you to win. Check it out!  Don’t need a new blog design?  That’s ok, tell a friend and donate anyway!  ;)

Won’t you take a moment to support breast cancer research and our friend, Wendy, by submitting your photo(s) and/or donating a few bucks to Boobie-Thon?

R.I.P. Fax Number

Given that we’re a good 11 years into the new millennium, as of today, September 1st, 2011, I bid my fax number a not-that-fond farewell.  You might still find it on my business card, but know that it won’t work.  If you try to fax me something and it doesn’t go through, drop me an email and we’ll hash it out.

Goodbye, Fax Number. Don’t let the door hit ya.
