What kind of asshole came up with the term unproductive? Oh wait, I know what kind of asshole. It was some kind of corporate higher-up asshole, the kind that needs the peons to produce enough to cover the thirty yachts and seventeen vacation homes and the emotionally abandoned daughter "studying" abroad with a rolled up 500 Euro bill stuck in her left nostril while she twitches on the floor of the hotel kitchenette.
Unproductive.
Ha!
Seriously.
I was unproductive today. I didn't get any work done that I planned on getting done. No writing. Not even outlining. No money-making efforts of any kind. No cleaning at all and if you don't believe me just ask the cat about the litter box and the exhaust fan I turned on in the bathroom when I noticed how ripe it was in there.
I didn't get shit done today other than get my car her rabies vaccine and renew her license, which these days is remarkably easy in Oregon, one-stop-shop, and it was spending money, not earning it, so it doesn't count as productive.
Yeah, today all I did was hang out with crows, make a few crow cams, eat a big dinner, and create a decent working draft of a watermark for my photos.
Unnnnn-proooo-ductive.
Boy, I tell you, you can make your shit look pretty fucking professional just by slapping a logo on it.
Hi. I'm The Crow Lady. I'm important.
But I'm no rich bastard CEO and I never will be.
Pretty ok with that.
In conclusion, Bo and I were wondering what you think of the logo. It's basically a working draft, not gonna be perfected until I can afford to send it off to a graphic artist or buy better design software, which will be a while yet considering I'm hooked on travel and crows and neither one of these things has figured out yet how to pay the bills let alone make me rich enough to buy even one square foot of a yacht.
Bo and I are in disagreement about my "business" name. He thinks I should call myself The Bo Lady. He's in denial over the fact that I am friends with other crows. When I tried talking to him about this today he shit on my head.
Personally I never would have picked the title The Crow Lady for myself (hey lady, listen lady, little old lady, that lady, etc.), but every one of the neighbors has independently dubbed me The Crow Lady without consulting one another, and the name gels super well with social media fans. So The Crow Lady it is.
But seriously, can you tell wtf I'm trying to do with this logo? Do you like it? Can you see it? Or am I crowblind...

Very cool watermark The Crow Lady. For not being a graphic designer, iThink you did a good job.
I looked for your YouTube channel but all I found were some black birds eating peanuts and pooping on some wacky ladies head.
Black birds are not crows, omg, what happened to your glorious green eyed visions?
I was just making sure you didn't correct the part about wacky lady. ~pass
Indeed. No correcting something I relate to so directly.

Heythanks!!! And weird about the channel. Definitely not my content. No crows here. 😶
(That was a close one, I almost send the smooch emoji on accident because they make these things so goddamn small anymore iCan't tell the difference.)
Crow Lady sounds good, fifth or second to last photo the one I would use placing logo onto black feathers.
Stone the crows with being unproductive !LOLZ
LOL NOOOOO don't stone the crows!!! I'm glad to hear other people like the name. It can conveniently be turned into Crazy Crow Lady whenever necessary.
!LOLZ It's all in the name, have fun using it.
thanks!!!
Nice logo! It has everything- a beak, a footprint, double eyelid.
Double eyelid!!! 😂
Don't they have that?
I remembered that from one of your posts.🎓
Nah, you're not crow blind, totally getting your logo and liking it a lot. Tell Bo no hogging your crow love, there's an endless supply. I'm curious to know what you want to improve/change with your logo via better software (which one?) or a graphic artist (you've got it nailed down, imo).
Thanks!!!! I do like the image, but the C could be a little more pronounced. Had to double layer it. The free software has limited font options so that was the best I could come up with. Got super lucky with that inspirational "T." I would loooooove to have someone design a gif with transparent background and make it walk. I'd put that at the end of all my videos.
Frankly, I really like it and if anything, just tweak tiny things to your satisfaction.
OMG, YES! I can just picture that now and it'd be so right, just so right.
I tend to use photoshop for what I'm doing and it's frame by frame. You'd want to make it via a video instead of stills. Found this, maybe that's useful.
Oh cooooool, thanks! I'll look into it when it's not 4:11am.
(Supposed to snow this morning. I can never sleep the night before snow.)
Wow, that's early to be up. Maybe it will help, maybe not, since I didn't dig into it.
Why can't you sleep the night before snow?
Because it seldom snows here so I get excited.
It snowed!! Didn't stick, though.
😂😂😂
You know, I can totally relate to that. I only experienced that once (prior to city life), last year, when there was no snow here for months. Finally a dumping of it and I got excited, LOL.
This is typical of how it is here now for many years. If there's more, it melts, gets slushy wet and then is gone in a few days.
I think I see what you're going for with the logo. What are you using to create it? Photoshop, GIMP, Canva, some web app, or what? I have OPINIONS about what makes a good logo if you want a semi-coherent rant on the topic. Hell, maybe I'll just write a post one of these days.
I'm using the adobe express web app. Free version. I pay for Lightroom and you'd think it would mean I could get an upgraded version of the shit you use to make the watermark, but nooooo. Feel free to opine away! This is my working draft. I'm not rich or famous right now so it is what it is. However, when I am the crow lady youtube millionaire, I plan to have someone design something along these lines that will "walk" across the videos and plop down in the corner.
