I opened and closed my day by talking to the Children’s Library about their website. It’s a large process — perhaps the most complicated since they post frequently and are very popular with the community. So it is a delicate operation to get their site just right. This means lots of spontaneous meetings to discuss [...]
Today was all about the odds and ends. Most of the strings came in via email or were sent out by me as I checked up on other staff members’ place in projects. Then I made a few new panels including another stab at an animated one in Keynote. I also had to dismantle my [...]
I can’t give any details yet, but I will be announcing two more freelance professional gigs soon. :-)
Thursday
I spent pretty much the entire day building this extremely simple site on our test server. This meant creating a Drupal child theme so I could port in Twitter Bootstrap, making adjustments as I commented out sections of the css so it would not interfere with the functioning of the website. It [...]
At 9:00 p.m. EST, it will be 365 days since my Grandpa passed away. Grandma called me between an hour and ninety minutes later to tell me. I was home alone and had been expecting the call after having been to visit him twice [...]
Tuesday
Yesterday I taught my second patron-facing class on Trello. The students were demanding and found mysterious ways to look at the site in ways that I would never use it. Some things I am still weak on are: 1) how to keep students who are friends from just chatting with each other 2) [...]
Today was a day where things had piled up over the weekend. I ran from task to task all day, literally up and down the stairs a few times, while trying to complete everything. At the end of the day, I finished all my tasks.
Created new 21 Things button. Designed 3 new digital [...]
The rollout for my Samsung Epic 4G (also known as Samsung Galaxy S) came out a few months ago. Sprint harassed me about it every day but my phone would crash during the updating process. Finally the announcement of OneNote for Android got me excited enough to bother with updating my phone from Froyo to [...]
Wednesday
Answered emails. Updated the Nook Colors’ settings. Worked on converting video footage (useless since the sound failed to record). Met with a department to discuss her department’s section of the website. We decided they would create a mood board on Pinterest to gather ideas for the visual style they are going for. Checked out [...]
Monday
We have hired another helper in the computer lab, so I started my week training the new worker. When she held things stable, I dashed off to place the latest 21 Things button on the website, fixed a digital sign, and fixed a problem on the website. A node reference which should [...]
