Fridaily brief blogging

[ellenmillion]

A work meeting this morning went very well, and I've got a great stack of exciting projects to tackle here, freelance-wise.

Some minor improvements were made to the customer-end of the Portrait Adoption site.

I didn't blog yesterday, but the Sketch Fest site got major upgrades, and the prompts page no longer takes 6 hours and 800 billion nested queries to load. LEFT JOIN is my new best friend. I love it to pieces. It also meant a new prompt-specific page, and some minor adjustments to the art, artist and uploading pages, and I built myself some sales tools.

I need to look over my January goals list and see how I did; not bad, I suspect, but I also am suspicious that there are a few holes because I did not look at it enough.

Voodoo Moon bellydance show is tonight, I'm going with Melody. It should be fun, though I am feeling much more like a quiet night curled up with a movie. Must put on my social face and go out anyway...

Now? Shower and that social face!

I hope that by the time you get there, you will be so swept up in the excitement of it, that you forget you need a good snuggle under a blanket with a movie.

You are a programming rock star!

Woot! :)

I had a great time - it was a wonderful show and definitely a better use of my evening.

Ooo! *runs off to look at SF site*

PA reminds me I need to fix a few arts for my mom and get them up there.

Awww!!! We are Rock Stars? :D

*pokes art prompt page* Hmmm, it doesn't wanna show the thumbnails when I click "show thumbnails"? That is clever doing a redirect ot a different page when I click, "view finished work"

It hates me when I try to back up using the back button, "this webpage has expired".

Oh! I forgot to take off the show thumbnails option. It's gone now!

And if you try to go back to a page where you just changed your options (show thumbnails, sort by random, etc.) it will object. I'll look at ways around that.

Thanks!! And yes, you are Rock Stars!
