As I said in the previous entry on Monday, I realized that I would not get a lot done this week. Tuesday proved that loud and clear as it was announced within seconds of stepping into my office that I would have to watch the computer labs all day. I was thankful I had mentally [...]
Since it was a three day weekend with the in-laws to celebrate Christmas, I decided not to post last Thursday’s work. I assume this week will be less productive since (it feels like) half the staff are out of town. So at this point it’s about keeping the library running.
Thursday
Tried to install [...]
I completed three Contactology templates today. The main goal behind these templates of course being to force a consistent look across our eblast communications. I am including screencaps of the design behind the cut, though now looking at the test emails I can see that some of the text is randomly centering itself within in [...]
Polly Farrington and I finished up writing the content for our WordPress class on Sunday. I formerly wanted to do video editing/consistency checking so I spent the last bit of my time going over the material to checking the headers, capitalization, and adding in cross-references between sections. At some point on Sunday, I wound up [...]
Today had its usual mix of requirements but three sections stand out:

Each morning when I make my quick turn into the main part of the building, I glance towards the digital signs to see how they’re doing. Every few weeks I’ll see that one of them is down. Today was one of those days, so I sat my lunch box and purse on the counter so [...]
I came to work a little bit later than usual since I needed to stay to watch the computer labs. Then I discovered the person scheduled for the lab this morning was out, so away I went for an extra 90+ minutes today. So, the framing of my day was spending time in the computer [...]
I’m a bit behind as I’m still working on getting the WordPress class written. Plus I’ve developed eye strain/eye fatigue. Yesterday my glasses fell off my face so I discovered that the frames are near their breaking point! That will certainly mean I have to reschedule one day this week to get them replaced.

I have been a devotee to Google products since the first time I logged in and used their search engine over Ask Jeeves. This would be back in 2000. Google manages many of my daily activities, keeps records for me, and occasionally I have a tug of war to get my chat message records out. [...]
I’ve been feeling pretty poorly for the last few days so I took last night off from writing here or on the WordPress class. Several of my coworkers have been ill so I may have caught something that way. Either way, I’m back to bullet points since I’m trying to recover:
Wednesday
Clean up work [...]
