Hi, I'm a waitress

It's been 10 months and 26 days since I got my blog on.

Since I last talked, a few things have happened:
-I've moved up from dishwashing to waitressing, or 'serving' in finer establishments such as the one I work at. It is fun and rad and all these people I feed tell me I'm good at telling them what they're eating and whatnots and all that, so that's nice.
-I made an album cover for my friend John, his band is called Panoramic & True, they are awesome and the album is great, go find it! I'm too lazy to find it for you right now. Maybe later I will.
-Poppy got fleas really bad for a minute. We fixed it though, and she appreciates her flea-free lifestyle all the more.
-Don't be surprised or offended for me, you sweethearts, if you see some beer in LA that looks like alanabaileybrand beer. I don't make beer. But it's OK.

-Airbreathing
-Poppyloving
-Pantswearing

-Dadvisits
-Auntiecare
-Fastcardriving
-Movieseeing
-Ticketgetting
-Resentfulbillpaying

IT'S SO INTERESTING.
I COULDN'T HELP BUT WRITE A BLOG ABOUT IT.
YOU HAVEN'T WASTED YOUR TIME.

Alana Bailey Brand Posters has moved! Also: New Chicago Protocol.

We have relocated to Florence, OR. This is good news for Portland, and also maybe for SF/Oakland! Chicago people, do not worry, here is how we can continue to work together:

Contact me a month ahead of your poster distro deadline. Then you can have your very own Alana Bailey Brand Poster in hand, on time, in Chicago.

OK?

YAY!

A DAY IN THE COUNTRY WAS SO GREAT

If you missed it, too bad for you! What were you doing? I bet you couldn't find your way out of green music fest when you got off the train. I had trouble last night and it hadn't even started yet.

It was a super gorgeous day, thanks to Lawrence Peters' weather machine, and we all got to hang around with good music, friends, dogs, rad kids, a roasted pig... potato salad, coleslaw, beans... tiny pies... beer....

Are you jealous yet? I would be if I hadn't been there.

All She Wants To Do Is Fall Asleep Staring At A Brick Wall

She's supposed to be doing my laundry right now. How irritating.

HEY, DON'T FORGET TO COME TO A DAY IN THE COUNTRY TOMORROW!

At this rate, I'm done for the year!

hey, did you see this? Anne Elizabeth Moore made it with her friends, and of course it is:

1. awesome

2. true

IT'S TIME FOR A BLOGGERSON: DAY IN THE COUNTRY THIS SUNDAY AT THE HIDEOUT!

Yep. 2 posts a year: what?

So. I made a poster for A Day In The Country 2011... I'm calling the style "Amish Psych" or "Psych Amish". I haven't decided which one rolls off the tongue better yet. I do not feel like getting up, taking a cameraphone photo, emailing it to myself, photoshopping it and putting it on here right now-I have errands to run as soon as I post this- so instead I will tell you IT MUST BE SEEN IN PERSON to really appreciate!

In addition to the DIC2011 posters I will have some backstock stuff, business cards, and good cheer to dispense... OH and the latest pilsen-and-chicken-themed LDCTA POSTER: http://www.etsy.com/shop/LDCTA?ref=seller_info

Come see me on Sunday, June 26th, from 2-11pm, at the Hideout! 1354 W. Wabansia. We can talk about the weather.

FEBERARY

This month is when my strange and lovely friend Jefferey Thomas lassos his buddies into a 13 piece band for the Hideout's V-day Makeout Partay for the fourth year in a row! What stamina. He seems to have incredible poster karma with me. Finished it just in time for 2 days of visual promo! Hoorah!
