...i suck at blogging. 

anyway, here's a cool site with pdf magazines  

Blogging aint easy

so, yeah... i'm realizing my blogging ability is falling far short of something I would actually read myself. Initially, you have to write all this stuff pretending that there are  people out there reading it, even when you know they're not. Which is cool. Whatever. Gotta start somewhere. But man, coming home after a 12 hour workday and blogging is hardly a relaxing way to unwind.

So, I'm going to take a different approach. Instead of merely posting thoughts (and occasional design work)  when I have the time and motivation, I'm going to post a series of images everyday of a particular topic; hopefully sharpening my repetitive blogging skillz ( yes with a "z," that's how serious I am. )

I'm going to start by posting a lowercase "a" of every typeface I currently have loaded in FontBook. That's right, we're starting with type, and by the end of this exercise, you will see all the fonts I'm working with. Not that I use them all ( I seriously use the same 6 fonts for everything), but have at various times felt the need to download and install them.

I'm not sure if I'll have the energy to explain exactly why I have some of these, but lets just say that different projects call for different typefaces. OK, without further ado, I present font #1 (shit, I'm already over this idea).
