Ramblings of a retired web developer
I was talking to my boyfriend, Armando, online, and he happened to link me to a video of this artist. I hadn’t heard this band/artist in such a long time, and ended up watching a bunch of other videos on Youtube. Then he shows me the wikipedia page for this person and I about died.
So, with that being said, can you guess who this washed up artist is? One hint: red hats.
As usual, it’s been ages since I last blogged. Although I think after this week I’m going to try to be more active with this website, as I do miss it. That and the current design and “content” has been pissing me off to the point where I’ve wanted to wipe it clean.
Aside from ignoring my blog, I’m currently admist working on a startup with Armando. I think I would call him my pseudo-boyfriend? Anyway, that’s an entirely different blog. I’m not going to go into details at all about the startup we’re going to start working on, but regardless, I’m excited.
So there, you’ve got my monthly update on what I’ve been up to. Expect more. Maybe.
I suppose I really am losing interest in maintaining my personal website. I don’t know why I just don’t care about it anymore, but it was bound to happen. I primarily blog in my livejournal since I have it set to friends-only, which weeds on majority of the public from viewing anything.
Life has been decent to an extent. As usual, work (or lackthereof) is stressing me out. My social life as usual is sub par but it’s never been on my list of priorities. There’s one person who has managed to get a lot of my attention for the past few months. So it’s safe to say that I think he’s amazing, regardless of what my PMS induced moods may make him think.
Maybe I’ll update this. Who knows. I doubt it.
I’ve had a new server on my network for a few months now, and have been procrastinating moving atourworst.org over to it. I’m not really sure why, because it was just a matter of logging into SSH to get the process started. Not like I had to physically do anything!
Anyway, I finally decided to get it done with today, so it’s now residing on grunt, while it had previously been on oreos. The main decision to move it was because I don’t like using resources that should be set aside for Holdfire Network. Granted, grunt is still a network server, but there’s about triple the resources available on this server, compared to my other ones. I was initially setting it up as my personal dev server, but decided to add it to the company instead.
That aside, I’ve been putting some finishing touches on a new design that I’ve been working on. The process is a bit slow, since it’s always a pain designing for myself. Sooner or later I’ll get it up, although I’d prefer sooner.
In other news, I haven’t been up to much other than trying to look around for more freelance work. It’s so frustrating being a freelancer sometimes, when your skillset does not include graphic design. It’d be much easier to find work if I was also a graphic designer, but because I’m not, my scope is a bit more narrow. There was a full time opportunity I was a candidate for, but I didn’t get offered the job, and the owner of the company is not able to give me any details as to why I didn’t get it. I’m a bit miffed that I can’t resolve what I lacked, but I’ll just keep trying elsewhere. I’ve been searching like a mad woman the past couple of weeks.
I’m guessing you still read my blog, because you’re a huge nerd like that. Anyway, just wishing you a Happy Birthday here as well. Wubs!
