Shoulders & Cranberries
Whew! Well shoulder day was inspiring…at least to some one.. I never thought myself a weak individual; certainly not physically. I mean sure I’m skinny now but there was a time that I had a bit of muscle and a hard on for martial arts… at least the Steven Segal eat and flip gangsters onto buffet table kind.
Today however, I felt physically weak. I mean wow! Having a day designed ONLY to focus on shoulders seemed a bit, wasteful. Waste of time waste of money waste of energy. I’m gonna breeze through today’s work out.
W R O N G ! ! !
In the beginning: I warmed up of course as per my instructors demanding voice and flawless Asian physique: “You warm up, or you tear muscle.” this is his every day version of good morning. I’m cool with it, he’s all business and I like not having to converse about politics or the weekend, or real estate (I’m an agent) .. Work out, go home. Complete time-saving awesomeness in a 5′7″ 25 year old Asian guy who’s never had more than 3% body fat in his entire existence. Let’s Move!
So I warm up. It’s THE hash-tag for boring but I do it to appease my trainer and my ego. Yeah, my ego likes to warm up. Not to be confused w/ Eggo’s, which I would devour without uttering a single syllable in recompense.. NOM-NOM…
After the Hash-tag session, we start the systematic deconstruction of my ego.

Set 2: 10-12 reps @ 12.5 lbs
Set 3: 6-8 reps @ 12.5 lbs
See? This shit is serious. That Asian is serious. I am the hash-tag for sore. There were sets that I could bury, like the overhead standing DB press and the overhead standing BB press and the rope pulls. Now the seated torture chair with a twist at the bottom….well i stopped every other rep like the ego-less sissy man boy that I am and pondered: “how did I get to be such a pussy?” …. and then: snapped back into reality by the broken word play that is my trainers English, I continued…
……then it happened: The Cranberries started playing in the gym. As I worked out my shoulders in what can be described as a form of self hatred I listened to The Cranberries and my eyes teared up as I realized: that’s it. I’ll never hear that band live again and I was sad. A piece of my life was spent listening to this band. Loving this band. They were fresh, original and lets face facts: She has/had the best Female Rock Voice ever. It pissed me off. So when that evil Asian Trainer of mine nagged to keep my form proper, I shot him a look of complete hatred and I pushed that fucking barbell through the ceiling and thought: “when I get home I’m gonna wake the world up with some Cranberries….and i might eat one, just one ego.”
Same inks on Curious Skin Absynthe and Purple with very different results. #daredeviltypesetting #partnersinprint #letterpress #springtidings #hobonation (at Tacoma, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO8xbl1BHEm/?igshid=m221ggujnrgw

In discussing the struggle to make work last year, @bearwithjetpack invited me to join her merry band of visual journal makers. I tried, but quickly struggled to match their mastery of art supplies, drawing skills and soulful story sharing. But I did launch a daily practice of one-line type specimens as a useful way to catalog the collection and culminate in a book. 10 months later, setting alphabetically, it’s HOBO time! 😈. While I haven’t attended meetings for awhile, this week’s prompt for the group—harvest—was clearly today’s one-liner. An homage to the bounty of community, wherever you find it. #typespecimen #hobonation #typecrushthursday #onelinespecimen #typography #letterpress (at Tacoma, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUu-qjUp1cG/?utm_medium=tumblr

Making the MOUS of #woodtypewednesday at @incahootsresidency. The type is 60 line, the paper is 53 inches, and the Universal lll press has obliged graciously in this well-equipped shop. A quick visit to @reaghpatrick included some #hobonation razzing, so I felt right at home. #letterpress #woodtype #portmanteau #printmaking #bookarts (at Petaluma, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP6pubHhOMw/?utm_medium=tumblr
