today
the new pa site didn’t go up last night, unfortunately. it’s very nearly done, but inserting all the new god damned ad banners that their network requires ended up being such a royal pain in the ass that there just wasn’t time. tycho and i were up till four am working on it, and the good part is that we did get a lot done, and i’m happy with how it’s all coming together. expect it to go up sometime over the weekend, most likely.
i’ve been listening to a lot of björk lately, particularly post. it’s just so damn good. plus i think björk herself is more adorable than any human has the right to be - seriously, she can do or wear essentially anything and she’s nothing less than delectable.
i really wanted to go to lbv last night - it’s been a few weeks since i’ve been, plus my friend sean was performing and i told him i’d be there. but jim and i both had so much fucking work to do. as it was, i overslept and still only got about an hour of sleep. there was the pa stuff, and when i was finished with that i had work [as in job-related work] to do. the only place jim and i went last night was to dunkin donuts for some much-needed coffee, around one am. oh well. i suppose there’s always next week.
jim’s been playing a demo version of dead or alive 2 which i believe came with the dreamcast when he bought it - it looks yummy. i haven’t had a chance to try out the demo yet, much less the full version, because i’ve been so busy - but i’m looking forward to spending some time with it this weekend if at all possible. i’m looking forward to playing just about anything, really. i haven’t so much as touched the playstation or the dreamcast in at least a week or so, and quake has been neglected for longer still.
for all that i’ve been working myself silly lately, i don’t really mind - i’m enjoying the pa project more than i’ve enjoyed designing a site in a while. it’s very different from my usual sort of thing, and it’s challenging me to design in ways i’m not used to. tycho and gabe are also great to work with, and despite the frustrations that got me in a bit of a vile mood last night, i’m really glad i’m doing this.
