Since October (when I had a stroke) some of the people closest to me have commented that my personality has made a dramatic shift. As I understand it, I am more of an asshole now days. I want you to know that I think I have figured it out. It’s not because I’m unhappy. I [...]
I am considering dropping my personal Twitter account – @arronlock – Twitter has become an endless network of spam and useless comments. Almost 2 years ago I fell in love with Twitter because it was an invaluable way of connecting with like minded people and conversing quickly about any topic. I used to be able [...]
Some of you know if you follow me on Twitter or Facebook that I have recently redesigned my personal logo. I used my signature for years as my logo but I didn’t feel like it represented me well as a whole. The new logo, you can see it to the left of this post, represents [...]

I have been thinking about organizing my office to be a little more productive for a few days now. I picked up the necessary supplies last night and got to work bright and early this morning. Here is the result. I received the Wacom Intuos 3 with my commission for landing my former employer a [...]
I run a small (only me) graphic design company and have been in the design business almost 6 years. My GF and I just had a baby in July, he is 7 weeks now. I took a couple weeks off and though I would love to just hang with my son all day, I need [...]
