I don't take kindly to demands!!

So, here I sit at work wondering what exactly I am doing. I've been put in charge of redesigning the entire website for my campus Union: Reeve Memorial Union. The site as it stands doesn't look terrible... but it is huge and hard to navigate. The think about it that I think needs the most work, though, is uniformity. That is, there are so many different areas of the site that they all seem like separate entities. I guess I am probably talking to myself mostly. I guess I just feel like it is quite a project for me to tackle by myself. It is good though, because this project pushes me to complete something that I've never had to attempt before. Then again, I'm leaving in a week to go to California for a month, so the whole project will be put on hold for a while. ramble ramble ramble.

I've also agreed to do a photography website for an up and coming photographer named Brian Austin. It seems to be a lot more slow going than I had thought it would or would like it to be. I am envisioning some javascript tricks and fun. That means that I'll have to relearn at least the basics of java again. Hoss agreed, back in May, to help me with the php portion of the site... if necessary, but haven't really talked to him about it since then. We shall see how that all pans out.

On a final note... I promised my fellow readers a few blogs back that I'd start running again. Well, I haven't.... yet. But today, my friends, today is the day of redemption. I'm going to start a rigorous work out routine that includes my acting studio stretches and workout and then a good run. I'm going to do it in the heat of the day right after work. (because I can't get myself out of my bed in the morning to do it). I have to fit in a wedding dress you know *wink*. but seriously, I think I gained all the weight back that I lost last summer and I feel physically terrible. I know that once I start exercising I will feel better not only physically, but emotionally too. I'll also be motivated and have more energy. But the trick for me is to get that initial energy. I've let myself become apathetic again. I know how good this routine would be for me, but it just seems so much easier to lay in bed and nap or watch some movie.... anyway, enough about stuff you already knew.

Starting today, I'm going to exercise and keep track of what I did. I'm going to let ya'll know what I've been up to (via this very blog). I think I'm also going to perhaps give you all a weigh-in and such (we'll see). But writing it down I think will really help to at least keep me on track. So there, I've said it and you can yell at me if I don't follow through (you have my permission).

I'm also going to try and do a whole site redesign for my site. Once again we'll have to see if that actually gets done. But I'd like to update the look. I'm sick of white at the moment and I built my page using tables which is a modern web designer no-no. So I need to update the code and look. Should be fun.

Thanks for read'n all.

Woot! nice work. I went for a run today for the first time in quite a while and holy cow was I ever suckin' wind. anyway... good luck and you can count on me to yell at you, lol... maybe.

well i'm gald to hear that you are planning on starting exerciseing agian. I didn't jog today, and i feel like crap

maybe if you got a job that was very labor intensive, you could just call that exercise. You would have to go, because its your job, and it wouldn't suck so bad because you would get paid for it. Its like killing two birds with one stone.

To whomever the crazy guy is: Hey, it's workin for me.
