Color Picks - 2010

I love color. Every color. As a child I would have a panic attack every time the teacher would ask, "What's your favorite color?"

What kind of question is that? I like certain colors for certain things. Right?

Pantone color of 2010

And the pantone color for 2010 is ... turquoise!

It's almost the same exact color of my logo! I hope that this is a sign of a good year to come.

Supposedly turquoise "transports us to an exciting, tropical paradise while offering a sense of protection and healing in stressful times."

Well, if that doesn't explain my life, I don't know what does. Don't we all need healing?! Does this mean that everyone's going to start taking beach vacations? I'm booking my tickets now...
