damn myspace layouts

i had a hard time getting up this morning, what with all the drinking last night. plus, i was up until all hours trying to fix my myspace layout. as a web designer i'm always trying to figure out how other people are programming their shit. plus, being borderline obsessive compulsive, i had to figure out how to put the damn scrollbar in my comments section. jesus h. christ! what a pain in my ass.

then i get up today and proceed to spend the next ten hours messing with css stylesheets and html code. for most of you, it's just cut and paste, which is fine... i just have this uncontrollable need to figure out why things work.

my layout is close to being where i want it to be... i'm just not a fan of centered text. to me, it's typographically unpleasing and difficult to read. but then again, i'm a fucking web nerd and readability is a huge issue with me.

i also hate ALL CAPS. i'm an advocate for all lowercase letters.

before i go to bed, i'm gonna photoshop a tattoo that brittany wants to get, on my forearm, on an old picture.

i know what you're saying about the whole OCD thing when it comes to read-ability and proper layouts.

planning to go insane

this europe trip has been a logistical nightmare. danny and i took three hours to find an available hostel in amsterdam and dublin . tomorrow, we have to get some accomodations for warsaw , vienna , and prague . thankfully beth is planning the greece portion of the trip. danny and i ate sushi at china palace ... which now serves thai food !?!?! i know, it's a shocker to me too. we then went to barnes and noble to pick up some travel books. while there, danny noticed a nice pair of legs and knee high boots with a short skirt. she was a goth chick, which is not usually something i concern myself with... but goth chicks need love too, and she was a cutie. we then stopped at 4 stores before finding a reasonably priced plug set for european countries. who knew that it would be so hard to find such a thing... during the summer... when everyone goes on vacation... huh?

auf wiedersehen

i wanted to post this on the board at express... but after being gone so long, i realized that now just isn't the time for me to go back there. here's the so long, farewell speech... To my express family – Another chapter in my life is complete. One year and nine months ago, I began at Express probably much like you did… looking for a part-time job where I could have some fun, meet some people and maybe buy a few clothes. Little did I know that it would become so much more. I did buy clothes… shit loads. 1MX shirts in every imaginable color, denim in all 3 fits, and enough polos to clothe a small African country. I even had Aymeei as my addiction consultant, approving various colors and styles based on my known wardrobe. I would've been better had it not been for the damn Express Card people constantly increasing my limit. I've met a lot of people… from our regular customers with never-ending exchanges to the associates who've quit after one overnight floorset. Ther
