As the title gives away, today we did a soft launch of the new eReaders. The small group we presented to did not seem particularly interested (ah, lovers of the paper!), but they surprised me by taking a couple out. The big launch is next week which means I still have to create the publicity [...]
I knew when I awoke this morning that it would be an off day. So I slunk through my day, just trying to survive it. My work today included making vector graphics, looking up more supplies for the project that will wrap up soon, doing final testing on the 3M eReaders and then customizing them [...]
I have been given the green light to go ahead to pull together and finish a project that I have been slowly kicking at since I was hired last July. This means I have to spend a fair chunk of money to complete it. My office is becoming crowded with all the shiny new things [...]
Today I had an open schedule so I was able to focus on four projects that had been neglected: nailing down the process of transferring eBooks to the 3M eReaders and teaching three staff members this process (only a dozen more people to go!), finally getting my files uploaded to my Github repository (the terminal [...]
As mentioned in the previous post, it was a family weekend which culminated in me feeling like I was going to toss my cookies everytime I took too deep of a breath. I’m usually healthy thanks to years of working with the public, so catching a bug always takes me by surprise.
Friday
I do not remember my sixteenth birthday (the next three are much easier to recall), but I do wish I would get to remember Dollbaby’s sixteenth birthday. In my memory bank, I wish I could look back at this day and think of the things we would have done; taking a photo of her wearing [...]
…so I’m supremely exhausted from entertaining.
Wrote up a web post about the books I presented yesterday. Worked on digital signage for the fundraiser on Saturday. Met to discuss the Adult Technology Classes — no more summer classes after this year! Researched mono sound on a VHS tape, a VCR, and importing it all [...]
This morning I tricked Celeste into the cat carrier. However, before that, I had the awful task of clipping off the last thing that Dollbaby’s name was attached to. In total there were three vet tags on the carrier (regular vet, emergency hospital, ultrasound hospital). That last day, I did not even get the carrier [...]
Today was Monday which of course means creating digital signage. I think I lucked out with making only eight or nine. I then completed the Book Groups pages. This particular project involved a lot of back and forth as sometimes I had to draft emails, set up Google Docs and Gmail, and create signage [...]
This morning I had to go to the Home Depot to pick up a special screwdriver so I can remove the back of a Nook Color. This would be for the one where the microSD card slipped behind the back panel. Just as I was sitting down my purse on my desk when I arrived, [...]
