For having zero expectations of how this was all going to go I think I did pretty well! And I got actual business done too, which surprised the heck out of me, since I was essentially shelving that side of my work so I could focus more on blogging for the week. And judging by how dead my brain is, I’ll say I’ve worked my keister off. If I got anything out of the deal, it’s a renewed sense that I am never not going to have to hustle the shit out of this <strike>slog</strike> blog. I’m not going to sweat that though, instead just keep plowing away and let things evolve as they are wont. I’m pretty tired of the sound of my own voice for the moment though, I can only do so much navel-gazing you know? So I’m going to take the rest of the afternoon off to hang out with my Dad. I’ll resume on Monday with fewer posts, but will be coding the new design tweaks and features (if you catch any bugs, send me a screenshot will ya?).
Annnnnd scene.
