Grrr.

Can I lack in motivation anymore?  I mean really…  I have SO much to do and not nearly enough motivation to actually get off my derriere and get it done!

I really should start playing with CSS templates to see what I can conjure up using that format instead of the current (likely soon to be outdated HTML).  Thankfully HTML and CSS not to mention JS (Java script) for the most part work harmoniously together so I\’m hoping praying that its not a major headache.  I figure if I go the CSS route I can create internal and external style sheets and enable global changes as opposed to having to update each site manually if I need to add/change/delete a link or some other central function which would make site updates a hundred times easier then they are now.

Once I get it uploaded and ready to go I want it to function properly with minimal fuss and nonsense.  This way I can focus my attention on other things and keep more up to date.  I should get to this now, thank god for W3Schools and they\’re exceptionally helpful tutorials!  At least in some cases I have the upper hand in the sense that I self taught myself enough function HTML to built websites back in the day but I need to kick it up a few notches and expand my knowledge of CSS.  Wish me luck!

This weekend\’s to do list:

Finish off my FAQ\’s
Finish off my couch
Create some CSS pages (I gave up for the night!)
Clean my apt
Install my job apps (gave up on this too because I can\’t get it to install correctly!

Starting anew…

I\’ll be the first one to admit that i\’m pretty bad at keeping up with any blog I have ever had.  I still have one that I semi-contribute to  but that\’s (at least in my opinion) most worked based stuff that\’s geared towards the horrors of culinary life and smartass bitching and carrying on about whatever I feel compelled to bitch about that day.

I did at one point maintain an IAM page, but that too has lost its luster for me (long before Rachel took it upon herself to TOS me) and I felt myself updating there less and less and the \”community\” as a whole for me really lost its appeal and was only keeping it around for networking purposes only.

Anyway, moving along…  This is just for me and me alone, to post whatever the hell I feel like!  Thankfully its the long weekend this weekend so I get an extra day off this week YAY!  Nothing like having three days off in a row 🙂  Maybe I can finally get some work done for once.  I\’ve been slacking off terribly in that department I must admit, but my motivation to get things down has fallen to the wayside for a number of reasons.

Mostly because of me and partly because I need to get my staff organized and start \”assinging\” tasks so that this gets up and running faster then I would on my own.  In any case I got some things taken care of on my own.  I\’m rather impressed with myself for doing as much!  Somewhat goes with the saying if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself and so that\’s how its going to go (for some things at least)!

Today was nice, John came over for brunch and we just hung out and watched TV and took a nap on my couch this afternoon and had dinner later on.  I can\’t wait until its actually warmer out so that its a better incentive to actually go outside for a change!

Sometime this weekend I have to finish off the re-upholstering of my couch and the bench in my living room and start spring cleaning too.  My biggest priority though  is getting more work done on my site.  I decided that CSS is the way to go, as opposed to HTML.  A lot less code bloat and a cleaner appearance overall.  Going to be a pain in my ass to re-work the whole thing but in the end it will be far more worth it I think.  Thankfully for the most part I just need to build a template and do a whole lot of copy/paste with some minor formatting.   Aside from that, I don\’t plan on doing much but relaxing and of course trying to get my life in order which seems to be a never ending battle of sorts…

A multitude of epic FAILS!

Dear God, today has got to be by and large the MOST heinous day I\’ve had in a while! First off I find out my IAM page was TOS\’d for something I didn\’t do. That however doesn\’t surprise me as Rachel is a power hungry twat…

Then I discover that someone shouldn\’t be trusted anymore which REALLY sucks!

Then I *almost* forget that today was good Friday and the bus schedule had changed, that however wasn\’t an issue. Then I go to work, the place is a tad bit messy and I have an abundance of orders to contend with first thing in the AM. Nothing I love more then making a ton of quiche for other people first thing in the morning blah!

*On a side note, I hate when people pronounce it wrong! Its QUICHE not kish or my personal favorite: a Guiche which in case you didn\’t know is a male genital piercing and makes me laugh every single time I hear someone call it that!*

Then I discover we have a tea party today, which had gotten forgotten about. So Donna asked me if I would mind running to Couche tard to grab some bread so we can make the sandwiches and grab some snacks for her and myself. So off I go, get what I need and of course upon my horror discover that I totally forgot to bring money with me! So that was a little embarassing to say the least! Thankfully its not far and I know the guys that work there to, but still!

Today was crazy busy! It was a constand non stop stream of people today who wanted tea and scones. Which is a utter pain in the ass, tons of dishes and a lot of work and most of us hardly think its worth it. Lunch however went over really well (creamy dilled salmon with lemon rice) which was nice seeing as how my day had gone to shit in so many ways throughout the say.

So i\’m leaving work, forgot my dinner AND my pay ugrh! Thankfully Donna lives down the street and is willing to drop it off for me, bless her!

So anyway I get to the metro, almost home… Then I look up and the escalators are broken 😛 Now don\’t get me wrong I\’m not *THAT* lazy BUT… My knee was killing me, its been a long week and I was tired and St. Henri metro has a whole Lotta stairs! So thank God for Catholics because we score a long weekend which means not work for me on Monday but I still get paid, YAY!
