I have blogged about many things over the years: coffee, getting a dog, taking the bus, San Francisco, pies, teaching, boyfriends, babies, and more pies. However, I am moving on. No more will I spend my Staycation happily cleaning my house and going to the dog park while exhausting the local branch of the public library. No, instead I have found a purpose (in addition to going to the dog park). I am making a website and improving my programming skills this summer.
So today, I spent a few hours in the morning taking the practice exam for my programming course (final exam in two days!). Let's just say that PHP can go implode its own arrays but I definitely got the ID of Javascript! Mwah ha ha does anyone else like these jokes?
Before lunch, Annie and I took a nice long walk where it started raining, so we hid under some pine trees until the shower passed over. During the rest of the year we wouldn't have blinked an eye, but now it's June and has been so sunny that we are starting to think we might melt if we get wet (probably how the rest of the country feels all year round).
On the way home, saw a lunch time open house, so I had to go! Never had the opportunity to go to a lunchtime open house, it was a rare opportunity that I and apparently no one else took advantage of.
Finally, I hunkered down and produced this masterpiece:
A website that may have been made by me |
If you're jealous of my mad border-radius skills, you should be. Not just anyone can make curved edges on a website. What this screen shot doesn't capture is that if you hover over one of the options, it turns green, which not only shows that I am awesome at CSS but also that I am familiar with complementary color schemes (thanks, Kuler).
Goals for tomorrow: whip up some Javascript to make random user reviews of my website appear (oh, and show my resume, which after all is kinda the point of this whole thing).
