Oh fuck. What else is Chewbode up to now? Well, as if I didn’t have enough shit going on, I’ve decided to expand the Chewbode museum up on the site. What the hell is the Chewbode museum, you ask? Nothing. Abso-fucking-lutely nothing. It’s a fucked up, insecure attempt to organize a bunch of stuff I found while cleaning out the closet in the studio today. I’ve got a stack about twelve inches high of things sitting on my desk that needs to be kept; Out of half a closet of shit. These things are neat, fun, goofy, things that I’m going to put online for others to see. I really don’t give a fuck if you like them or not, I just need to do this. Then I can put them away in a nice tidy little box for the rest of my life. Or throw them out. Whichever makes more sense in 5 years, when I clean the closet again. So, I’m adding this project into the projects list. There won’t be a glimmer of change to the site until the entire museum is ready, so don’t be trolling the site looking for it (wait… what the fuck kind of stupid shit am I talking about?). Uh… SCOUR the website for the new stuff as frequently as humanly possible, and jack my fucking hit meters up, beotchs.

Seriously, I’m going to be uploading some stuff with some (hopefully) fun little stories and such. I’ve got a lot of things I want to do to the site: some historical, preservation-style things, some just fun, some just dorky. Check back in a few days. I hope to have it done soon.

The last five days off were great. I really needed that. Granted, two of the days were normal weekend days, but it helped. I played a lot of video games, ate some pizza, and relaxed.

My and Shauna’s 10th wedding anniversary is tomorrow, so on Saturday we went out and bought ourselves new wedding rings. Finally. We’ll pick them up tomorrow night and then head out for a nice dinner someplace.

This week is Schunk’s last week at work. It’ll definitely suck not working with him anymore. Five years of working (working well) next to someone really is cool. Anyway, we’ll get together on the weekends to play video games or catch a baseball game, or something along those lines.

After the much needed break, I’m diving back into my website again tonight. My goal is to finish the graphics by the end of the week. After that, Jeff and I need to asses the entire project (app and website) and see what’s left. I really want to begin marketing this November 1.

Sick Thought of the Day: Cream in the Coffee

My old colleague, Vicky, stopped by the office today. I haven’t seen her since February sometime. Since she lives in the Big Apple now, we only chat via IM anymore, or the occasional phone call. It was nice to see her.

While she was here, we went in to see her old boss (who is my boss), and all three of us we talked for a little bit. Then, my boss stands up, closes his office door and starts in with “since I’ve got both of you here…”. He then goes on to tell us that he’s resigning from the company essentially. Well, actually, he’s moving on to another part of the company, but won’t have any association with our office anymore. I think Wednesday is his last day here, as he ships out to that other division to help get them up to speed (that division was recently acquired by my company). So, that was a shock. Most of the senior staff here knows, and it’ll become public knowledge tomorrow at our company-wide, monthly staff meeting. I have mixed feelings about him leaving. I’ve been with the company almost 5 years now, and over the past year things have happened between he and I that really strained our professional and personal relationships. I wish him the best, though.

Jeff and I have switched our roles in our side-job. I was working on finishing up our app, while he was working on the programming and structure of the website. Tonight, we’ll swap again and I’ll start on the graphics-side of the side (the programming is done), and he’s gonna work on tweaks in the app.
