I went to the place I refer to as “that place I don’t work at anymore but they don’t realize it yet” today. It was emotionally and physically draining. Sure, the place issues paychecks, but I just don’t have time to go there. So many more important things to do… I didn’t […]

I started out the day by sleeping in and finishing A Crown of Swords (The Wheel of Time, Book 7) and then grabbing my traditional morning bagel and coffee. The relaxativeness of the morning was quickly shattered when my slave-driving boss (also known as “me”) started cracking the whip.
First he made me build a […]

In the past day I’ve added “Dracula”, “Frankenstein”, and “The Scarlet Letter” to fictionclassics.com. It’s going to be a long process building the place up, but it’s enjoyable enough.
SpaceTheremin won the Editor’s Choice Award at Hitsquad. An award from the biggest audio software site I know of - that totally rocks! Because of the award […]

I’m rapidly getting to the point where working for someone else isn’t worth it at any price. I have too much that is too important to me to be sitting at a desk doing something I don’t care about and am entirely uninspired by. No matter what I’m doing for an employer I […]

I found and fixed an annoying bug with AlgoRhythmia 3 today. It’s the sort of thing that a user probably would have told me about if I had made contact information easier to find on the Zeta Centauri website. It’s another reminder that you never can test software too thoroughly. I posted […]

So today I had an idea and purchased the domain indybandchallenge.com. This is going to be _REALLY_ cool. I’ve also spent some time reading the book “Building Online Communities with Drupal, phpBB, and WordPress”, which is very useful.

Today was a fairly productive day. I added a drum machine section to soundprogramming.net and ended up adding more than 50 manuals. I also posted “Animal Farm” on fictionclassics.com.
I was checking out the upcoming Warhammer Online game from EA Mythic (http://www.warhammeronline.com) and decided that creating a fansite might be a good idea. […]

One of the worst things about working for someone else can be filling out a timesheet. This is especially true when you’re doing work that is supposed to be charged to various account numbers. It’s even better when you have to redo a timesheet because account codes have changed and nobody bothered to […]

Not only did I pass January’s monthly website traffic total today, but I also had the single best traffic day ever: 562 hits with about 3.5 hours to go in the day. I might manage to double last month’s traffic by the end of the month. I only need to double my traffic […]

Slept in and eventually went to work today only to find that the parking lot hadn’t been plowed and the building wasn’t open. It’s so nice that it wasn’t important enough to tell me that it was closed. An hour of driving round-trip for nothing is no big deal - it’s the kind […]
