So I'm stuck on campus this evening, not wanting to make the drive home in between being here for my multiple hour stay in the financial aid line and an event I'm recruiting waterski people at tonight. I've been passing the time pretending I knew how to use Adobe Illustrator, messing around with a signup sheet and a sign for the waterski locker.

What I've come to realize is that Illustrator is really cool. I'd used Photoshop plenty, PageMaker enough, and Premiere many times, but until today I'd never fired up Illustrator. Even non-artist me (civic title notwithstanding) was able to create something that looked pretty good.

Now I'm off to Kinkos to see if I can get these printed.
