The weekend couldn't have scome soon enough!!!
Oh my god! What a week! Work has just been CRAZY. I'm the director of all digital systems for Utah at a large national company. I won't say who on here, because you never know who is listening (i.e., reading). ;)
Normally, my job is total cake. Usually, there is nothing to do but work on little projects I make for myself, a little bit of training, and paperwork...
But we just rolled out a new software bundle for our main workstations...
Long story short: AHHHHH!!!!! There are more bugs in this piece of crap than you can possibly imagine. I don't want to bore you with the details (and they are boring, except when you have ten people yelling at you, rightfully so, because this or that is missing/not working)...
Good god: I pulled not one, but TWO all-nighters this week, and yet I made very little actual headway in this project.. Worked approximately 60 hours total...
Aside from that, just pushed out a new issue of my online literary mag, Megaera, so I had to scramble to put that together... I was uninspired on the graphical look of this issue at first, but what I ended up doing layout-wise is one of my favorites ever, second only to maybe Issue 14...
This is just a little site a friend and I started to kill some time back in, what, 1999. It's actually been a lot of fun, and we've gotten some real recognition, which is strange, since we kind of cobble it together in three days every three months... Honestly, not all the work we publish is phenomenal, but hey, we're limited by what is submitted.
P.S.: Amy, Genevieve, Sam, Scott, Jen, and Jenn (no, not you :) ) have officially been declared flakes. I was SOOO looking forward to Goblin Valley this weekend. :( Ah well.
