CSS Hate Level = 6/10

I am slowly starting to grab hold of CSS … I think, thus why as the subject notes - I have lowered the CSS Hate Level. I have been working on a project, and while I don’t know the level of “proper” CSS coding I am making on my HTML end, the bottom line, I have a working site layout for a project I am doing, and it looks “okay” still some fine tuning to do, but all in all, looks quite well.

In other news, I am sleepy - not sure it’ll ever go away, but with explosions last night (fireworks started selling yesterday) I thought I’d have a problem getting to sleep, instead I passed out quickly, and woke up around 6am this morning, yay? lol - but I am already into my day - going to order a server at 8am or so, see if I can’t get it online and ready to go within the next 3 days, do some dry runs with migration between cPanel 11 boxes shouldn’t be a major deal, but if so, that’ll give me 2 days to get it ironed out.

Anywhoo - onto Monday, Transformers tomorrow, lots to do lots to do. Have a Good week Folks!

Welcome to July!

Well here we are, new day, new month, new new (ran out of new things) - but I am just waking up entirely, been “awake” so to speak since 4ish but stayed in bed till 5 to try to go back to sleep, however sadly, no such luck, but considering the fact it seems I went to  bed at like 8pm last night, I think, I’ll be okay.

Loving CS3 - Intel speed is lovely on the Mac, played a little in Dreamweaver, some in Flash, as they are the new kids on the block for me, both do a fair job, my big desire is to continue my plunge into CSS-dom, I have a tester CSS file, and a dummy HTML file which I have been playing with trying to make some table-less layouts, and actually know what I am doing ;) so far… yeah.

Got a txt msg yesterday from Ms. Rosie, and followed that up with a email from Mr. Matt, got to catch up a little bit, but as Matt said, the get together we have been trying to have for going on like 5 years or so now, we just need to get on and have it already! Matt is moving in the fall, folks have had some life changes since we all were together last, new kids, new jobs, going back to school, finishing school, getting engaged, getting a house, etc. I suppose I should pick a date, put it on the calendar, and tell folks they have no choice but to come, failure to do so means a black van that looks similar to the van used in the A-Team, will drive by your house and kidnap you :)

Health wise, I think I am officially on the mend, woke up midnight Friday and puked my guts out, not the funest thing in the world, but I am guessing it was a needed action, as I am feeling better, had a headache most of Saturday, but after 8hrs of sleep, can’t complain too much, at best the only thing I am feeling right now is the desire to eat biscuits and gravy - but then again, that is the usual 5:30am hunger ;)

Well that’s it for me I think, been sitting here zoning out so who knows, may there is a little sleep left in me yet ;) till next time (aka probably later today) :)
