damn… it really sucks to be busy all damn day long. i’m tired. but not to the point where i can go to sleep just yet. it’s kinda like what happened to me yesterday. i was tired as hell when i got home, but i stayed up. and then when it came time for me to actually go to bed, i couldn’t sleep. perhaps, it was because i was just too unbelievably tired to fall asleep. who knows? anyways… i stayed up rather late last night working on a few websites. the first was a redesign i’ve been working on for asu’s student government association. i designed last school year’s site (http://www.aug.edu/sga), and was approached by the new president to update the look a bit. you can find the new work in progress at: http://www.aug.edu/sga/v2/. it’s got a much different look and i’m really excited about the possibilities. i’ve run into a few roadblocks hosting wise. i may need to host the site through my companies’ web server if i can’t get server-sides enabled on the school servers… I was also working on sites for some clients of ours at ddcom. the first was sandy springs internal medicine… you can view the concept for that site at: http://www.double-dot.com/dev/ssim/. i’m still kinda iffy on the design for this one, and i may tweak it before the project is wrapped up, but it’s a good start nonetheless. the other site i worked on was one for a local restaurant in town called villa europa. their site is in dire need of a revamp, so i’ve been working on updating the look. their old site can be viewed at: http://www.villaeuropa.com. my new work in progress is up at http://www.villaeuropa.com/v2. i was still working on some finishing touches for the concept up until 5:30 this evening. so far so good. it’s definitely an improvement over the original (and another concept i did at http://www.villaeuropa.com/new/. anyways, that’s all for now. i’ve rambled enough. i’ll try and post again before night’s end. ttfn.

late update
wow… it’s just a few moments past 7pm and i’m just now updating my site. what the hell is wrong with me?
could it be that i was busier then hell today? nah… course not! actually though, i was pretty busy. had a meeting at first baptist church regarding their website. the meeting went pretty well. i was amazed by the interior of the office component of the church… and the seminary was breathtaking. the meeting ran long… nearly two hours… i was hoping the day would fly after we got back to the office. but time came to damn near a stop-still after that point. the day dragged ass like a no-legged leper. s’ok though. i’m home now. experimented in the kitchen a little bit. (i made some weird cider lime chicken… was kinda good… tasted somewhat bitter though… can definitely improve on the taste of the dish.) my bro was even brave enough to eat what i made. he didn’t have any major complaints other then it needed more flavor. maybe next time i’ll make it better. i didn’t know what the fock i was doing this time anyways
hehe… experimentation is dangerous!

Quiet Night
it’s nice having the house to myself for a while. too bad i’ve got to listen to my printer all night long. (i’m printing some brochures up for my dad for his home inspection business. s’ok though. could be worse… i could be forced to listen to yanni or barbra streisand all night long. (damn, that gave me the shivers… the humanity…) off to work i go. ttfn.

i hate being busy
sorry for the lack of updates. i’ve been busy over the past couple of days. i was working on some final touches on bellranger.com. i did an initial concept that i grew to hate, so i took the time to “improve” the look. i’m notorious for that.
anyways, here’s the old one [bellranger] (link removed. now nonexistant.) what do you think? think my new design is an improvement? or worse? why not let me know? -
cdharrison.com
it’s 11:35am, and my site is now online. i’ll be porting over old content throughout the day. hope you enjoy.

Purpose
after a little bit of consideration, i’ve decided to just make this site a depository for my thoughts and feelings alone. (at least for the time being anyways.)

a new beginning?
as you can see, i’ve pulled my site offline. don’t worry, it’s temporary. i’m going to take a little time off and try to get things better organized on the site. i know a few of you may be disappointed for my doing this, but the site is not getting the attention it deserves from me. for that i apologize.
i’m still not sure what I want to achieve with my site. i originally intended it as a portal of sorts to give people an intimate look into my life. the more i think about it though, the more i realize that few people would care about a closer look at my life. when i first started this site, i figured i knew where i was headed with this… now, i have no idea which direction to turn. i guess it was always supposed to be like this. i’m not always supposed to know what things are going to be like, or how things will turn out.
so what is to become of me and this site? well… only good things can come from a little time off now and then. i’ll be able to devote more time to keeping this site up to date once i figure out what i want on here and what what v3 will be like design-wise. i won’t let you down, don’t worry. with every new look i’ve gone for, i’ve aimed for something a little more special… and a little more unique then the predecessor. hopefully, i’ll be able to achieve that once again.
i’ve got a ton of work ahead of me, and i don’t anticipate it will be easy at all, but i will be working on it. no need to worry about that. so please, bear with me. even if it takes me all summer long to get things straight on here, don’t give up on me.
thanks for your patience.
