Now for a bit of a housekeeping break. There are several places to find us, of course. The PHI site is our home, a place where you can find out more about who we are and what our philosophy is.

As always, there's the blog - a place to share all things that inspire us, that make us laugh, that stir our day-to-day curiosities. And when it decides it wants to cooperate, there is our tumblr where you find a range of quick inspirations - photos and music clips, quotes and even videos to share. If you have your own tumblr account, follow us! It's a great place to share.

There's our flickr as well, where you will be able to see photos from our events and there is our Twitter, where you can follow us for a day-to-day update of things as well. And for the record? Conan O'Brien is a class-act.

FYI. It's still coming, this week's write up of our New Year's Eve party setup. If you follow our Twitter, you know that it was an eventful process.

And what an adventure it was. There were boo boos and band aids. Everybody's favorite, of course of course, the feather boas. There was double stick tape and little, tiny tricks - of course, most little tiny tricks seem like a good idea at the time. However, in the coming days after, pulling said little trick off made each little sticky trick not so much a good idea.

Of course, there was the weather. And the weather never likes to cooperate, of course. Because if the weather did cooperate, it would be sunny skies and seventy degrees in the middle of January. Nonetheless it was a success and as soon as the pictures are sorted through, you'll get to see a little bit of everything! Boo boos not included.

"In an age when other fantastically speedy, widespread media are triumphing and running the risk of flattening all communication onto a single, homogeneous surface, the function of literature is communication between things that are different simply because they are different, not blunting but even sharpening the differences between them, following the true bent of the written language." Italo Calvino, Six Memos for the Next Millennium.

Things to look forward to! Photos from today's project setup, comments from the peanut gallery, music, coffee talking, favorites. If you want to find us elsewhere, there's our twitter, which you can always follow, and our tumblr. Don't forget!
