I have a close circle of friends who are apparently obsessed with nicknames. You know who you are. /wave We all went to a Devil Ray’s game last week where I was informed that I have a nickname now: P-squared for Perfectly Petersen.
As a designer, you can’t help but have lightbulbs, fireworks, and Mother of all Bombs going off in your head when you hear a catchy name like that. Here is something about how the process works:
- I’m not offended.
- Hey, that’s actually pretty cool.
- I’ve never had a cool nickname before.
- Sure beats the heck out of Dogboy.
- Whoa!! New title for my blog coming…
- It’ll be P-squared now…
- I can finally make a logo!
- Yes!!!
- Hey, why is my wife looking at me like that?
- I’d better sit still for a while.
That about wraps up what happens in my head in approximately 28ms.
Welcome to my world.
We have all heard the song by Dusty Springfield:
