Just my $.02 - Various thoughts, observations and comments.
Was a client site today and presented with a word that doesn’t exist, but why not?
When working on a database you can add, delete or update a record, right?
If you’ve added a record, it’s been an addition.
If you’ve deleted a record, it’s been a deletion.
If you’ve updated a record, why isn’t it an “updation”
It’s 2:00am and I have to go to work tomorrow.
This is what happens though when you commit to having a “guys night out” with your son and you play catch for a couple of hours in the park. After that we came home and he played Xbox Tiger Woods ‘06 for a little bit. Then he wanted me to play with him some more on there.
Got back to working on the computer about 11:30pm. It’s definitely time to start shutting ‘er down though. I’ve narrowed down my “To Do” task list for clients by about 20 items. And that doesn’t include the random things here and there I’ve accomplished as well (like this blog entry and others.)
After returning from New Orleans I’m working through various requests from clients for modifications they’d like to have made on their website. This is something I’ve taken care of for a client of mine (actually my longest paying client) for the past 7 years.
So, I’m grabbing their e-mail and saving and opening the attached PDF which is a semi-regular newsletter type of thing. Before I open the PDF, I surf over to their site real quick to see the stats and determine what other types of updates I should make while I’m working on their site.
Lo and behold, the ENTIRE site has been redesigned. Now, considering I’m considered the “webmaster” and they paid my invoice last month, you’d think I would have heard at least a whisper of a redesign being in the works. Not so.
So, I just sent an e-mail to the Executive Director and my main contact in the corporate office to ask if they’re still in need of my services.
Maybe I’ll hear something tomorrow.
…no, not since I wrote a post, although there has definitely been a gap in posting with my recent excursion down to the Katrina ravaged city of New Orleans. It’s been 32 years since I stepped foot on this terra firma we call Earth. I’ll be celebrating the occasion today with my parents for lunch today at Cracker Barrell, then my in-laws for dinner tonight at P.F. Changs.
I did just return from New Orleans. I was there for almost a full week working at a neighborhood ministry center called Desire Sreet Ministries. This ministry was a school and kind of like a community center a neighborhood in New Orleans that held 20,000+ people and was the murder capital of New Orleans. Since New Orleans was the murder capital of the United States, that pretty much makes this place a bad place to be. However, now it’s a shell of it’s former shell. This was honestly the closest I’ve ever come to being in a 3rd world country. This trip was very eye-opening for me. As a side note for NFL fans, this little neighborhood produced the great Marshall Faulk. In addition ex-NFL quarterback Danny Wuerffel is the main sponsor for the Desire Street Ministry.
