Nerf-Coated World

This is not an entry in my blog

Because I frankly haven't had much time to post in the last few days. It was a minor miracle I posted twice on Saturday.

This is a busy busy week.

I'm working on a new design for the company I work for -- and I think I'm not crowing too loudly when I say it's the most professional-looking site I've ever done.

I've also been working hard on The Robert Ellis Patterson gallery website. It's about 94% finished as is, but I still have one major feature to complete, a few minor bells & whistles and some general polish to administer. I do get to be a bit perfectionistic, as I see everything I do as an extension of myself.

Meanwhile, I have two clients that I'll be starting work for early next week. I say "clients" because I'm working for them, but given the fact that they're paying me in barter and/or candy checks, I do acknowledge the loose usage of the word.

It has also come to my attention as of 2 minutes ago that the aforementioned site doesn't load right in Mac/IE. Oh, accursed Mac/IE. Whatever will I do with ye?

Speaking of Macs, I think I'm going to chip in the $500 for this new Mac mini. My 20" monitor can handle multiple inputs, and I already have a Mac keyboard and mouse -- and considering its total footprint is only 6" x 6", I can just set it on top of my Dell and not miss any space on my desktop. I have to hand it to Apple for lowering the price on these guys so that more people can afford 'em. Apple does well when it puts affordability high on the priority list.

So things are good. I'm glad to be working hard and to have the creative juices flowing. All's good in the personal life too, thanks for prying. Everything's just working lately, and I'm going to work hard across the board to keep it that way.
