The occasional snag

This comic? Is the story of my life: How a Web Design Goes Straight To Hell.

I'm just starting to enter Step 4 with the wushu school website redesign right now, and I'm *praying* that I can distract them enough with my superior English-speaking skills and a generous use of techno-speak to make them give up and just go with my advice. XD

Last night was pretty stressful, mostly because we wound up getting to the event 45 minutes late. ::eyeroll:: I won't go into how THAT happened, because holy hell was I pissed and I don't need to re-live that one. But it wound up being okay anyway, because the organizers were also late due to traffic, and several of the other vendors no-showed. AND the attendance wasn't very good, because apparently this little shindig couldn't compete with the rassenfrassin' Civil War game. Pesky football, always harshing my mellow!

Good news is, they're doing a similar (but bigger) event at another place in the Pearl next Friday, and they offered us a free booth for that since this one was slow. Boy chatted up the DJ at last night's event, and apparently these events are usually really packed, so I think we're going to do it! And I'll have most everything already gathered together for the super-big-deal event on Wednesday anyway, so it'll be minimal as far as extra workload.

In other news, I have a ridiculously busy Friday night, and then I have absolutely NOWHERE to be for the rest of the weekend! That's probably good, because I'll need time to do vendor booth stuff. But I'm almost weirded out that I have nothing going on all of a sudden. Free time = WIN <3

Thank goodness I'm not the only one who's mellow gets harshed by football!

My company has our least tech friendly person working with the webdesigner. She is always asking for weird things like "less line-y" and has no concept of a functional website. I don't know why they assigned that task to her... huge waste of time for all parties.

Oh Jesus Christ. Reading that comic made me laugh, but it also made me angry. >_<
