I love typography. I have a sick obsession with it. I love letters and numbers and the combinations that can be made from them. I've been in the process of making a series of paintings with my favorite letter and combinations to put up in my house, but there seems to always be something more important that comes up. Until I get the time to finish my project, I'll have to settle on the top 10 combinations that mean the most to me.



10 THINGS WITH LETTERS AND NUMBERS
1. V (Mom's first initial)
2. P (Husband's first initial)
3. 2505 (Street address)
4. 79 (Street name)
5. 4512 (Phone number)
6. 64132 (Zip code)
7. H (My first initial)
8. Kansas City (My city)
9. 816 (My area code)
10. 1996 (Year I graduated high school)

I haven't seen much of the sun for the last 4 weeks. Amsterdam was cool and wet, Rome was cool and wet, and when I returned, Kansas City last week, it, too, was cold and wet. The most sun I saw was when I was flying over Europe and the Atlantic Ocean. Spring is one of my favorite seasons because it is warm enough to enjoy the weather, but there are no mosquitos. A few moments ago, the sun just peaked out from behind the clouds and it renewed my energy and excitement for the all of the wonderful things to come this weekend.

I have 2 weddings this weekend, an engagement party tomorrow, and on Sunday I get to watch the final episode of Lost.

I'm so excited that the weekend is finally here. I just know that the sun knew it was my TIME TO SHINE!
I hope you get out and enjoy the sun this weekend!... I know I will be!
