For a short week – it was still too long. I’ve got a project that I’ve been trying to wrap up since the end of March. I’m a very patient person but even this is starting to wear thin. I’ve explained on a number of occasions I am not a search engine expert – I know some of the ins and outs but the algorithms keep changing on a daily basis. I know what tools to recommend for the application I use but the final tweaking is up to the client. Well, it looks like I’m getting stuck with that too. I definitely underbid this job. I think I like being a sub-contractor better – less headaches.
I’m trying to plan something for Megan’s birthday. She wants to do a mother/daughter picture at Glamour Shots. Couple of problems with that, first of all there are no Glamour Shots in Birmingham. There is one in Nashville where she lives though. Since she wants to spend her birthday here with me, the original plan was to pick her up sometime around the 4th of July. Well, Jeff is making plans for us to go to Knoxville for the 4th. So Megan has suggested we come up to Nashville that Friday night and go to Glamour Shots Saturday morning. Then after we get done with the pictures, Jeff and I would head to Knoxville. Going to Knoxville via Nashville is “the long way†– it doesn’t matter to me, it would be a nice change of scenery but since Jeff isn’t fond of my driving (I drive the speed limit what can I say?), he would be doing most of the driving. I think I should suggest he do like we did in DC. I did all the driving there and he ignored in by playing a Gameboy. So, that’s only part of the problem, Jeff asked why not a family picture of the three of us? The thought has crossed my mind but Megan wanted to do the Glamour Shots thing. She had also mentioned just going to a portrait studio. Okay, so I have a lot to think about and try to balance out.
I’m still playing around with various blogging applications. I thought AOL’s instant message to blog was pretty clever, unfortunately I can’t access AIM during the day. I’ve been a big fan of Google and I forgot they had Blogger. I signed up for one of their accounts – I just figured out how to email my posts into it. I’ve had many times in the middle of the day that I just wanted to post my comments right then, now maybe I can. I’ll probably add it as an RSS feed until I get the feel for it.
