Millions of Heroes fans like myself download the episodes from iTunes. Am I paying for free TV? Of course I am, but it’s worth it to me so I don’t have to be a slave to a network’s programming schedule. Plus, no commercials.

Right now is such an exciting period! We have our first retail store opening up a week from Monday. It’s the culmination of an insane amount of hard work by a lot of us to get it going. It’s been so fun getting to design for new mediums such as product displays and exterior signage. I simply cannot wait for the doors to finally open!

Large coffee, extra cream, extra-extra sugar. I have no shame about how I take my coffee. Honestly, I’m not sure you can even call it coffee after I’m done with it. More like beige sugar-milk. I go to the same DD every morning for my fix. It’s pretty hit or miss most mornings, usually more towards “miss” on the not-enough-sugar side. This morning, however, a morning when I couldn’t have needed it more, it’s so spot on I felt like writing about it. And now I’m going to get back to it, as it’s getting cold.
