On again off again

School is finally out, and I did well, though it was tougher to get to the finish line than I expected. I'm enjoying web development, but have my doubts about its ability to help me find a job when I'm through. The process of working on development projects while I'm out of work, though, is a good thing. It keeps me in the industry, even though I'm paying for the privilege instead of getting paid. That's the kicker.

There's a chance I'll have some work on a project basis soon. School has been good for giving me some sort of schedule, but having work and real deadlines will be good for me. It's amazing how easy it has been for me to slack off in just a few months.

I'm creating a work-related site. It won't be a blog, per se, but more of a showcase for projects I do either for school or work as an advertisement of sorts for my services. I've gotten the name "codestress", and will use that as my domain name. A friend from school created a logo for me, and I'm going to work on that site as soon as I find out about the project that may come my way for work.

I had an altercation with a stick blender, and the blender won. I have an injured index finger that is bloody and painful, but the doctor said it should heal on its own in about a month. For now, I'm going to change my bandage, clean off my keyboard, and head to bed.

Good night!
