Busy

Trying to get a new version of the Exhibit(s) website up by month’s end — the site is badly out of date, and poorly designed, to boot. I’m hoping to have it done before I start my new job, so I’ve basically got about two weeks left to make everything smooth and clean and ready for launch. I spent yesterday recoding every single page of HTML and poking at the CSS until I felt okay with everything. Still considering the underlying architecture of the directory structure, and I’ve got some work left to do on the merchandising section and a few other little things to add or clean up, but mostly, done (just received an email from Chance about it, in fact: “Wow, Kenn. That looks really great so far. Fun, informative… heck, it’s infotainment!”).

It makes me wish I had more time (and drive) — I’m inordinately proud of the code under the site now, and tempted to changed the entire look just because (in theory) it’s now a simple task, down to tweaking the stylesheet for a complete new look. I’d like to go back and fix all the sites that I designed to be the same (not to mention cleaning up all the sloppy code that I’ve left behind all these years as I learned).

Sadly, I’m too busylazy to do so.

Speaking of, take a few minutes out of your day to read this letter from a Marine in Iraq. Insightful and moving — and if you know me, that should tell you something.

If you don’t know me, it could tell you something, but probably misformation at best.
