I haven't abandoned this yet!! Hooray?

Hello out there (I refuse to address this to "followers", because to my knowledge as of yet, I have zero of them, and I'm fine with that.  This blog is for me, not really for anything or anyone else.  Which makes me struggle with the difference between what makes this anything more than an amped-up teenage years diary-type blog, but apparently, no, this is much much different (and for some reason, professionally mandatory)... I have yet to grasp this concept, clearly...)!

Thanks to Derek, I have stopped my workflow for today and threw my efforts into making some MAJOR changes to this thing.  Thanks for pointing out the badness, buddy!  However, I feel that this is a little more genuinely reflective of what it's supposed to be, and hopefully it can grow from there.  Still not really sure what to do with this thing, but I know that I need one, and honestly, it kind of helps to get my thoughts out there (although it still feels like some sort of personal page that I've made on GeoCities in middle school).  So, on with the thoughts!

Editing has finished on the first episode of "The Thirteenth Four" podcast, a project that's currently being undertaken by my husband and myself along with another married couple, and I'm pretty pleased with the end results.  As soon as the website is in shape, and we've figured out what the hell we're doing with intro and outro, I'll be sure to post more details about where any interested parties can find it.  Hopefully more people than us like it, because it's kind of fun to be a part of something like that.

Speaking of presentations on topics, I'm pleased to say that my Prezi is 90% finished for the Small Museums Association conference in Ocean City next week (can you tell that I was one of those people during school that became crazy with pressure and deadlines and spent many a finals week in an espresso-induced, zombie-like state until my last exam was turned in and I could finally succumb to the siren song of slumber?!)!  Tonight will be spent finishing up this presentation and its accompanying notecards, and creating the metadata (and items in Omeka, after a long session of glaring at a CSV upload screen) for the second-largest Hall in The Skeptiseum, the Hall of Religious Beliefs (which, upon doodling around further in Exhibit Builder, I have realised is going to become two Exhibits - "World Religions and Mythologies" and "Miracles and Relics.").  Husband needs to seriously stop eating my working hours.  I don't like working second shift, damn it.

After much frantic tasking, I have decided I need to create and implement a schedule, one of various dimensions and levels.  This is going to be an undertaking.  Possibly Chris's.

Anyway, time for more coffee, and then back to work.  Whoosh!
