Cool bridge

Stairway to?

Some things are just hard to explain

Amy and madison

I spent about 12 hours straight yesterday developing a framework of an application in PHP. I wrote it with well documented, sematically correct HTML along with elegant CSS and not a single table. It works beautifully in Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari. My custom authentication script secures the application against unauthorized access but also makes it impractical to show off my work.

Sometimes it is frustrating to write beautiful code or elegantly designed databases and because the work is proprietary or has company mission critical data I am unable to demonstrate my skills. For a long time I have tried to budget a couple of days at the end of each project to update my resume and create a static presentation of the site but with projects running on top of other projects such luxury of time is not available.

Today: unstable, irresponsible

And I’d do unthinkable things for a cup of coffee right now!

No. Not another. Evan may 27.

Fantastic

Good memories

Apparently for the past 12 hours I’ve been sitting on my glasses.

This guy is selling pixels in blocks of 100 with a minimum purchase of 100 for $100. His website has made him £32k! And still I work my tail off and struggle to make ends meet.

Of course, I find this an interesting one time fund raiser: "Last year Bristol University student Rosie Reid raised £8,400 by auctioning her virginity online to help fund her education."

I have perfect vision again! Er, rather I don’t own glasses anymore…

Today: Exhausted. Mentally, physically.

Student: What’s the difference between a prostitute and a computer consultant?
Master: A prostitute knows when the job is done.
