On monkey work...

I love everything about designing, except for doing monkey work. You'll hear this term a lot from me: monkey work is basically pixel pushing, paper cropping, project mounting, brainless labor. All monkey work that I would rather pass off to someone else (albeit, someone who is just as much if not more OCD and anal about craft as I am). Once I'm done with the design part, I want to move on to better things.

But, I must admit there are certain kinds of monkey work that I like to do. One thing that I love to do is put postage stamps on envelopes. I could do this hundreds at a time  -- especially if they're pretty stamps... because really, who doesn't love stickers.
