Farm-Fresh Design

Our next Squeeze outing will take place on Saturday, April 26th at Jay's. Plan to be there at 6p and park in a well-lit area, because after dinner we be visiting as many of the pubs as we can!!
Please RSVP to me no later than Wednesday, April 23 {which also happens to be Adminitrative Professionals day, so be sure to thank your Admins!} so that reservations can be made.
Hope to see you there!

Okay, after much ado, I'm going to try blogging again. Yes, I'm ridiculously busy, but it only takes a few minutes, right?

The main website is slowly but surely coming together...
B-rad helped me at least get the title up last night so it wouldn't have that ugly "you forgot to load your page" placeholder. No, GoDaddy, I didn't forget, I haven't had the friggen time yet!

Hola, design luvvas!
Our next outing will be either June or July {ish} depending on vacation schedules. After much drunken discussion at the last dinner, we are venturing north! We will be meeting at Sake, the Japanese Steak house on Miller Lane for dinner. After dinner and SAKE, we will be heading up the road about 5 miles to the roller rink. I will send out an official evite to everyone on my email list.

The Squeeze is coming soon to the Dayton area!
What is this Squeeze?
Ten years ago, thirty {or so} Visual Communications students embarked on a journey of knowledge together at Sinclair Community College in Dayton, OH. Though this was a commuter school, the group was close during their time there. After graduation, some got jobs, some moved on to different schools, and some chose to pursue other opportunities. The friends stayed close and regularly emailed each other. Two years ago, they got the idea that they should be getting together for dinner every so often. At the last dinner, someone brought a friend {from outside "The Group" - o horror!} and the idea for The Squeeze was born.
We are a free-to-join group, comprised of WORKING design professionals. We are young, we like to have fun, and we like to b!tch about design software, clients who don't understand that PhotoShop can't work by itself, it needs a schmuck to sit there and make it go, etc. Spouses/significant others are welcome; my husband LOVES the fact that there are other people who have to put up with their schmootzie-poo at a movie excitedly naming off the fonts rolling on the credits... or go to Chipotle and every single time wonder WHY they would have chosen Bank Gothic for all their corporate branding... But I digress...
Please keep your eyes peeled for future posts! This will be a blog to share info and ideas on design and design software. Please visit us at thesqueeze.us for more info.
