Casa De Morrill

Every 30 minutes or so I have to get up and walk around a bit. Otherwise, my back starts to hurt. It’s doing better now that I’ve been to the chiropractor, but I’m hoping these next few visits help even more. Today, I’ve been busy mapping out some of the software we use. Now, hanging on the wall behind me are three sheets of paper taped together covered in sticky notes. The sticky notes are all of the functions and they each have arrows pointing to other functions, etc, so I know how the program works as individual modules. *stretch* Time to take a break from crouching over my desk scribbling. I think I’ll go ahead and move my couple of health entries over to the new health section on my site.

Just in case you geekoids out there need some hard drive rails. STG Ebay Auction Here are some good quality rails that we are not using, we have quite a few so buy some for your friends, family, pets, hetero life mates. Act Now!!!!

Geof helped me get my new site design up. I’m really pretty happy with it. I also feel more comfortable with playing around with greymatter as well as css. Over the next couple of days, I’ll be finishing up the various tweeks that we left to be done later.

I still need to finish off the links at the top of the page and put something in most of them. The recipes and health links will be taken care of as soon as I post to them, since they’re happily set up now. The ‘recent quotes’ sidebar section needs to be taken care. Again, I’ll worry about that once I have a goodly amount of my quotes stored in there (and I have a pretty large collection of random quotes). I’ll, of course be tweaking fonts and suck on the page. I also need to put a slightly wider graphic at the top, so that Portablekat.net is fully spelled out in the background.

Then, it’s just a matter of manually putting together the top five stuff and finding a decen (I’m not expecting great) counter to use for my countdown to graduation. Normally, I would balk at the idea of putting something non-aesthetically pleasing on my site, but graduation is such an important milestone to me that I’m willing to sacrifice a few aesthetics to revel in the fact that graduation is finally less than a year away for me.

Some of the new things added to my site… Well, the sidebar is completely new; so is the recipes and health sections. Those two are something I’ve been wanting to do for a while but have put off until the redesign. I’ve also added commenting to my site. We’ll see how that goes. If no one comments, then I’ll likely take it off, but we’ll see how things go for now. I’m also going back and enabling commenting on all of my older entries, in case anyone’s interested. We’ll see how this goes.

Oh, and Geof, you did a great job with the site! Thank you. I’m very, very happy with it.
